Description:

Adolescence is a formative season when young people are developing their identity, faith, and sense of purpose. Nazarene Youth Mission Academy (NYMA) seeks to engage teenagers during these important years, helping them become deeply committed followers of Christ who understand holiness, share the Gospel, and participate in God’s mission. As NYMA continues to expand globally, additional resources are needed to make these opportunities accessible to teenagers and to equip leaders who can develop the ministry in new regions.

This project will provide $50,000 to support NYMA expansion in South America, Eurasia, Africa, Mesoamerica, the United States, and other areas of global growth. Funding will help provide airfare for NYMA leaders and trainers, scholarships for teenagers—including pastors’ children—and essential expenses such as food, accommodations, training materials, transportation, and ministry resources. This support will enable NYMA to enter new countries and regions, train local leaders, and remove financial barriers that might otherwise prevent teenagers from participating.

The vision is to see a generation of Nazarene teenagers who are deeply committed to Jesus Christ, pursuing holiness, equipped to share the Gospel, and actively engaged in God’s mission. As teenagers and local leaders are trained and equipped, NYMA can continue multiplying around the world, developing young people who carry their faith and commitment to mission into adulthood and become future leaders who serve Christ throughout their lives.
