Youth Ministry, Christian Youth and Young Adults
"Let no one look down on your youthfulness, but rather in speech, conduct, love, faith and purity, show yourself an example of those who believe." (1 Timothy 4:12)
Heartbeat of Our Youth Ministry
Encounter-GOD
“If we don’t give the next generation an encounter with God, there won’t be a generation to carry the Kingdom of God.” ~ Tom Crandall
There’s nothing like encountering an infinite God in our lives, and that is what we desire for our youth.
We desire for every single young person at APC to encounter our Awesome GOD in ways that they’ve never experienced before. We desire for them to see JESUS rightly, in all His beauty, in all His wonder and in all His holiness.
APC Youth Ministry exists to Equip and Empower young people to become true worshippers of Jesus, love people, and spread His love in the City of Bangalore & the Nation of India.
Our five key areas are built around the Great Commandment (Matthew 22:37-40) and the Great Commission (Matthew 28:19-20). They are:
1. Worship: “Love the Lord your God with all your heart.”
2. Ministry: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”
3. Evangelism: “Go and make disciples”
4. Fellowship: “Baptizing them”
5. Discipleship: “Teaching them to obey”
Programs and Events
Youth Conference
The goal of the youth conference is two-fold, (1) to help young people see that Jesus, by His blood, has given us access to come before the throne of God and (2) Establish our identity in Christ, as sons and daughters

The APC Youth Service
PITSTOP is the APC Youth gathering for all the young people focused on encouraging and equipping youth to be people of influence and impact for the Kingdom of God. These youth services are designed to address real-life issues, impart godly values, communicate timeless biblical principles for daily living and to impact other young people. It includes a time of powerful worship, teaching, experience sharing, ministering through performing arts and meaningful group discussions
Monthly Youth Meetings (MYM)
Every month youth meetings are held at each of our locations, one Sunday a month after the main Sunday service. This is a great time of fellowship and learning. Please check with the youth pastor for the current schedule.
Zoom Weekly Youth Meeting Every Friday at 9pm we connect over zoom for a short time of fellowship, learning and prayer. The call details are shared in all the youth whatsapp groups. Please email us at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. to receive details of the weekly meeting.
Youth Life Groups
Youth Life Groups are the “life” of the youth ministry. This is where relationship, discipleship, spiritual nurturing, care, loving community and spiritual ministry will happen. Please see our current life group listing for youth Life Groups.
Annual Youth Camp Once every year, we host our three-day youth camp. These are three days of power-packed sessions on a theme for that year, with times of worship, prayer, ministry, lots of fun, food and games. This year the youth camp has been cancelled due to the prevailing conditions.
Local Church Ministry and Missions
APC's young people are actively involved in ministry, serving in many different areas of local church ministry during our Sunday services (e.g. Worship teams, Ushering, Media, etc.) and during the week. We encourage young people to be involved in APC missions during 2021. This would be a perfect platform to fulfil the purposes: Discipleship and Ministry
College Outreach
Since 2011, our young people have been actively involved in outreaches to college campuses holding Campus Elevates and Campus Groups that serve college students in our city.
Campus Elevates: A one-hour inspirational program with inspiring talks, activities, multimedia presentations, performing arts and other creative methods.
Campus Groups: Small groups of students gather in coffee shops, people’s homes, on campus etc. with the opportunity to go deeper, build friendships and discuss issues relevant to them.
APC College Outreach volunteers please review these guidelines.
