About Us
Legacy of faith shaping generations.
History & Development
Established in 1946 by the Church of God General Assembly, the General Department of Youth and Christian Education started its ministries in 1969, with significant developments under leaders like Rev. Ronald Blair, who introduced the Youth Fellowship and Youth Camp. Leadership from Donald Roberts to Rev. Kevin Page (1988-present) focused on enhancing camping ministries, emphasizing Christian education, developing leadership, and fostering discipleship among youth. Initiatives such as the National Youth Congress, Regional Congresses, Excellence Exhibitions, and the International Teen Talent Competition have been pivotal. The Department’s evolution reflects a commitment to visionary leadership, creativity, and the transformation of both the church and wider society.
