Theme: "Beyond the Walls: Taking Faith to the Streets"

What if the greatest revival in our church doesn't start behind a pulpit—but on the sidewalk? What if the real mission field isn’t inside stained-glass sanctuaries—but in the streets, schools, parks, and bus stops of New Providence and the Family Islands?

That’s the bold vision behind Youth Month 2025. Our theme this year is: "Beyond the Walls: Taking Faith to the Streets".

This is not just a slogan—it’s a summons. Our youth are not the future of the church; they are its present-day missionaries. July is not a month to showcase talent, but to mobilize disciples. We’re empowering young people to lead ministries in public spaces, share Jesus boldly online, pray over their neighborhoods, and serve with joy wherever there is need. Their message: Faith belongs everywhere.

This theme directly supports our 2025 conference-wide mission: "One Mission, One Family". Youth Month is where that mission becomes visible—young and old, side by side, taking the gospel beyond the church walls.

Throughout July, you’ll see:

  • Pop-up worship services in public spaces
  • Social media outreach campaigns by youth
  • Community impact days
  • Spiritual mentorship circles
  • Powerful Sabbath worships led by youth in churches across the conference

We invite every member, ministry, and local church to be more than spectators. Don’t just applaud—walk with them. Support your youth as they step out in faith. Host an outreach. Lend your presence. Pray intentionally. Provide transportation. Match their energy with your encouragement.

This July, we’re not waiting for revival to come. We’re walking it out—one youth, one church, one family at a time. It’s time to go Beyond the Walls.
