Youths are the pillar of every society - including the Church. It is a known fact that without youths, no country, no state, no republic and indeed no Church, has a future. It is because of this fact that ECWA has placed a serious emphasis on Youth Development. The Youth Department of ECWA have been organising programs that are aimed at uplifting the youths, giving them a superb time while at the same time building up their faith in Christ.

One of such programs is the Youth Conference which is held once a year in every region and zone of the country.

Every year - at precisely the end of November - Thousands of youth gather under the auspices of the ECWA Bukuru DYC, a sub-division of the Evangelical Church of West Africa, to build themselves spiritually, morally, physically and mentally. Through the years, this gathering has proved itself to be a very joyous one for the ECWA Youths in the region. During previous years, Youths have been quoted as saying that the Conference has served as a platform to launch them into a world of togetherness in the Love of Christ, as inspired by the Motto of the ECWA Youth Fellowship, "Maturity in Christ".
