We are excited to welcome you to our Youth Ministry, where young people come together to grow in faith, serve others, and build lasting relationships.

We look forward to having you with us as we make a positive impact in the lives of others while following the path Christ has set for us. Come join us, and let’s make a difference together!
The Youth Ministry of the Church has existed as long as the Church itself. However, it became inactive until its reorganization in 1976, with Bro. Joshua F. Cassel, Jr. serving as President. Since then, the youth have made numerous contributions, including erecting a bulletin board on the Church fence in 1985, a project started during Arthur F. Bucket II’s administration and completed under Bro. J. Alphanso D. Perkins’ presidency.
During Rev. Theo D. Allen’s tenure as Pastor, the concept of a Youth Minister was introduced to coordinate youth activities in collaboration with the Pastor’s Office. Licentiate George Gyude Wisner II was appointed as the first Youth Minister. The current Youth Director is Sis. Wilnet S. Gaye, with Bro. Rocky R.M. Smith serving as Vice Director.
From the 1960s to the mid-1970s, the male youth were part of the Men’s Department, and both groups were collectively known as the Men’s & Boys’ Department. During this time, William Henry Minor Sr., then a brother, served as President of the Men’s Ministry.
