OYiM is a global youth initiative designed to give teams of young professional (18+) an opportunity to magnify Jesus in the cities of the world through the Three Angels Message!
Before His ascension, Christ’s final words to His disciples reminded them to “reach the world,” making “disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you” (Matthew 28:19, 20, NKJV) |

A WELCOME MESSAGE
Dear Youth Director, Right now, you are standing under the shadow of Jericho. The young armies of the Lord under your command are just waiting for their orders. What will you do? Will you consult with the many excuses tempting you to abandon the cities of the world to the giants of crime, vice, poverty and godlessness or will you command God’s young people to move forward? |

Even now God is saying to you, as He did to Joshua “See! I have given Jericho into your hand, its king and the mighty men of valor” (Joshua 6:2).
Right now, you hold in your hand a simple yet effective strategy for tearing down walls and rescuing the lost Rahab’s of the world. One year in Mission when intentionally planned, promoted, and implemented by youth directors at every level of the church is a mighty catalyst for city evangelism, revival and discipleship.
I believe God through this youth and young adult initiative wants to blow the “ram’s horn”, as He did before the fall of Jericho. The ram’s horn is a beautiful symbol of the everlasting gospel. Just like it took the death of a ram to produce a horn, it took the death of our Savior to produce Salvation for the world. No wonder the Bible commands us to “…declare the Lord’s death until he comes” (1 Cor. 11:26).
Youth directors, now is the time to take the cities in your Divisions, Unions and Conferences for Jesus! “…and it happened when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the walls fell down flat. Then the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, AND THEY TOOK THE CITY” (Joshua 6:20).
Take the city!
