Life Skills & Vocational Training

For over a decade we have been empowering our Youth with the keys to successful living. Now we are ready to go to the next level with our training and job skills programming.

Personal Development & Mentoring

Our Princess Paradigm girl's mentoring program is just one of the many outlets we have utilized to teach etiquette, hygiene, grooming, and self-esteem. We are excited about the new initiatives we have in store for the next decade.

Arts Training & Talent Development

We have a full fledged Performing Arts department that is equipping and enhancing the talents of both Youth and adults. From drama to dance, choir to wardrobe design, we are using the medium of Arts & Entertainment to address the social, mental, economical, and spiritual needs especially of the underserved.

After a traumatic gun shootout incident where members of our congregation were caught in the middle while returning home from an evening at church, the SAYF (Significant Advancement of Youth & Families) project was birthed and began as an in-house initiative but has expanded to reach the community. SAYF umbrellas some of our organization’s other programs including M.O.D.D. (Men of Destiny & Dominion) Squad, M.O.D.E.L. (Mentoring Our Daughters & Equipping Ladies), The Princess Paradigm Girl’s Mentoring & Personal Development, Welcome to the Hood - Fatherhood, Manhood, & Boyz in the Hood mentoring groups, Y.E.S. (Youth Empowered for Success) Violence Prevention Council, and most recently When Will the Nightmare End? Creative Arts Initiatives. Working together, all of our Youth and family programs and initiatives aim to provide the resources, services, and assistance that are vital to our community's safety, growth, and development with an emphasis on:

  • - Life Skills & Vocational Training
  • - Personal Development & Mentoring
  • - Creative Arts & Public Speaking Training
  • - Violence Prevention & Civic Engagement Involvement
