"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden.
Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl.
Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.
In the same way, let your light shine before men and women,
that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven."
Matthew 5:14-16

YPD MOTTO
"Grow, Glow, and Go for Christ"
YPD PLEDGE
I pledge my willing and untiring service to all efforts of the
Young People's and Children's Division to aid needy and suffering people
regardless of race, color, or creed.
I further pledge to take the Bible as my guide, to aid my church,
and to attend meetings regularly.
In all these tasks, I seek the Savior's guidance.
- To interest Christian Youth in discovering opportunities for witnessing in today's world,
and put their Christian convictions into action in all of their daily relationships.
- To develop leadership committed to Christ.
- Enable youth to know the background of the A.M.E. Church and the Women's Missionary Society.
- To do our best in helping make God's kingdom come on earth, as it is in heaven.
