We strive to create a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere where young believers can connect with one another, share their experiences, and support each other in their spiritual journeys. By building strong relationships and a sense of belonging, we aim to equip our members with the confidence and tools they need to navigate the challenges of today’s world while staying true to their faith.

Through our efforts, we hope to inspire and prepare Ethiopian youth to become agents of change, spreading the message of Christ and making a positive difference in their schools, neighborhoods, and beyond. Join us at the Ethiopian Youth Christian Association as we journey together in faith, grow as disciples of Christ, and transform lives for His glory.
