Children and Youth Ministries

Director: Ms. Alverta Jones

At Antioch, we believe that the future of the church is held in the hands of our youth. Our mission is to teach them the beauty of living and believing in the Word of God and to also teach them how to worship in an authentic manner.
Here at Antioch, we constantly remind the youth that they are a chosen generation, God's special possession (1Peter 2:9). I Introduce to you the Youth Ministry of Antioch Baptist Church in Action:
AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM
This is a free program available to all students in the county.

It takes a whole village to raise a child.
Igbo and Yoruba (Nigeria) Proverb 

This Igbo and Yoruba (Nigeria)  proverb means that a
child's upbringing is a communal effort. The  responsibility for raising a child is shared with the larger family.

Children are considered a  blessing from God for the whole community. This communal responsibility in raising children
is also seen in the Sukuma (Tanzania) proverb "One  knee does not bring up a child" and in the Swahili (East and Central  Africa) proverb "One hand does not nurse a child."
