Our purpose is not necessarily evengelism though we always desire to see souls saved. IBYC strives to build Christian youth of grit and grace.....of beauty, with the strength of genuine Christian character. The young people come together to edify and encourage one another through an annual conference and through our online chat forum. It is a time for them to get to know one another and realize that others in the Caribbean have the same goals and face similar problems.
Friendship and fellowship are essential to the future effectiveness and ministries of the Independent Baptist Churches in the Caribbean.
IBYC's key verses: "Seek that ye may exel to the edifying of the Church" (1Cor. 14:12b) says it all. We strive for excellence that we may be of benefit to the Church. IBYC is local-Church centered, without apology.
The Lord Jesus Christ loved the Church and gave Himself for it. We should do the same.....serving one another in love.
Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could learn to love one another as Jesus loves us? We can, if we are willing to let Him do it through us. The choice is yours.
