Wesleyan Youth's Ministry

The mandate of the Eastern Jamaica District Youth Department is geared towards empowering youth to seek and recognize their purposes in the kingdom of God. This will be achieved through educating and re-energizing our young people, by embracing active study and application of the word of God, our handbook for victorious living. 

The District comprises of eighteen (18) churches widely dispersed across Eastern Jamaica (Portland, St. Catherine, St Thomas, Kingston and St Andrew), hence it is incumbent on youth leaders to implement creative ways to keep our youths connected and involved. Youths identifying and walking in their God-given purpose require mentorship, hence, the Eastern Jamaica District Youth Mentorship Programme creates a haven that fosters confidentiality, creativity, discipleship, and training in various capacities, identifying and cultivating the gifts and abilities of our youth.
​
The Wesleyan Youth are firm believers in promoting and enjoying a holistic view of Christian living. Therefore, the Wesleyan Youth will embark on various initiatives endorsing “Believers Living Holistically”. These initiatives include but are not limited to:

1. Nurturing relationships across our borders: The global pandemic has forced the church to pivot as it pertains to gatherings and physical interactions. The progressive application of technology, will allow the youth to stay connected through various virtual programs and activities which provide intellectual engagement, affective expressions, and social interactions designed to bring out the particular theme employed for the period.
2. Fostering Spiritual growth and awareness: Through social and recreational activities, our youths will be taught Christian values which will improve their character to positively impact our society. Activities will include youth camps, youth retreats, walkathons and sports days, etc.
3. Sponsorship Model- Comfortably transporting our young people to national and local events in cost-effective manner is very important. Therefore, over the next five (5) years, the Wesleyan Youth will embark on the initiative dubbed “Bus it Up” as a way of getting our bus for the District. We will seek the assistance of external sponsors to make this desire a reality.
4. Missions and Evangelism- Jesus’s mandate is our mandate. We want young people to be saved, sanctified, baptized and discipled. It is only then that they will be able to walk in newness of purpose.
