Youth Ministry

The Youth Association of the Haitian Baptist Church Crossroads is governed by the (5) fundamental principles which guide young people in accordance with the Bible, from which they are all drawn:

Confessing Christ—Romans 10:9

• Serving Christ — John 12:26
• Being loyal to the Church of Christ— Romans 12:4-5
• Commune with Youth who belong to Christ --1 John 1:3-7
• Encourage young people to accept the sacrament of baptism by immersion — Marc 1:4-10.

 The objectives of the Youth Association are as follows:
