FROM THE NATIONAL OFFICE

MY PLEA
I heard once that when there is no communication friendship will surely fail, but this time I want to say that I am not happy because I figure out that if our communication remains as poor as it is at the moment, it will be difficult for us to achieve great things together. I may not be able to call every President because the list is pretty long, but ‘m the only national president on your list. PLEASE KEEP IN TOUCH. Check this blog every Friday or at least once every week, you would always find something new. God Bless you.

CAMP JOSEPH 2008
Preparations for CJ2008 are on already, we had some slight challenges with the venue talking about Redeemers High School, RCCG Camp Ground. They said that foams are not going to be made available, but we are working on it.
Suggestions on how to make camp big, better and more impactful are welcome, simply post a comment on this particular blog title.

QUARTERLY BREAKFAST MEETING
The quarterly leadership meeting is just around the corner. But this month we would be meeting on Saturday June 28th by 10am and also on Sunday June 29th by 8am, venue still remains the YOUTH HOUSE. Attendance on both days is very important. At least two persons from each chapter are expected for the meeting, the quarterly report of your chapter would be submitted at the meeting.

NEW LEVEL MEMBERSHIP CATEGORIES
Ydi now runs three basic levels of membership.
1. The Bronze Level
These are youths who have consistently committed, faithfully and loyally involved in any Ydi Chapter. They would have been seen to have accepted the ministry of Ydi as a place of their own. Their involvement should have transcended just attending chapter meetings. The President of the Chapter should be able to attest to their involvement. This primary level of membership qualifies the youth, having undergone basic trainings at the chapter level, to apply for and get Ydi ID card. Such a person must be filled with the Spirit and given his/her life to Christ. He /She must also have brought into the chapter another potential member.

2. Silver Membership
This category of youths must have been committed for upwards of two years to the ministry of Ydi in their chapter. The requirements of this category shall be an extension of the bronze level. The individual must have been fully identifiable with the Ydi Chapter in his/her vicinity. His/her support to the chapter must include spiritual, physical and financial support. A silver member of Ydi must not have a character problem, unbefitting of a believer.
Such a person must have brought at least three standing members.

3. Gold Membership
This category of Yd’s must have been in Ydi for upwards of three years. To become a gold member you must have come to the point of personal conviction of remaining a Ydi member for life.
The slogan ‘Once a Yd forever a Yd’ applies to the gold member. The individual involved must have passed through the bronze and silver levels, before aspiring To become a gold member you must have come to the point of personal conviction of remaining a Ydi member for life.
The slogan ‘Once a Yd forever a Yd’ applies to the gold member. The individual involved must have passed through the bronze and silver levels, before must be well celebrated by the chapters and great value must be placed on the particular day of induction. We must therefore start accounting for those we are raising.

These inductions

NEW LEVEL CHAPTERS
. FEDERAL COLLEGE OF EDUACTION, AKOKA
. FEDERAL POLY EDE
. UNIVERSAL COLLEGE OF TECHNOLOGY, IFE
. ILESHA POLY
God gave Pastor a vision of establishing 21 new cahpters this year, and that assignment lies in the office of the national President. But in reality i can't travel everywhere to make sure that the work is done. The deal is that with u , we can achieve more. It's simple, locate a higher institution around you that doesn't yet have a Ydi Chapter, conduct a survey of the school and get in touch with the national office for the necessary support you might need.
