Motto:

Our Philosophy:
The Philosophy of the Israel Baptist Church Youth Ministry is:
The structure and program of the Youth Ministry is based on the African proverb, “It takes a whole village to raise a child”. We strongly believe that every individual and ministry of Israel Baptist Church has a responsibility to support the youth. Everyone has something to offer that will enable us to successfully achieve our mission and ultimately the vision of the ministry and Israel Baptist Church.
Our Goals:
  • To grow in spiritual knowledge, faith, and holiness
  • To discover and exercise our spiritual gifts
