Our Mission: The Mission of the Africa Christian Youths Development Foundation clearly reflects the special biblical mandate given to us by the Lord Jesus in Matthew 9:37-38, and it reads:
“The harvest is so great, but the workers are so few.
So pray to the Lord who is in charge of the harvest
Ask him to send out more workers for his fields.”
The Foundation came into existence as a direct response to the above mandate, in September 2003, after a three-day National Christian Youths Leadership Seminar, organized by Project Hope-Nigeria at the University of Jos, Jos-Plateau State of Nigeria.
