Youth Department (called Baptist Youth Fellowship – BYF) was formerly called “Christian Endeavour” (C.E.) before it was organized as a separate Department.
Perceiving that Youth were the future pillars and leaders of the nation, under the leadership of Mr. Dongkho, Mr. Mangkho, Mr. Vumkam and Mr. Vumkhohen, twenty five young people gather at Centre Office, Motbung on May 22, 1971. The meeting was presided by Rev. Helien Kipgen, the then Field Secretary of KBA as chairman, and Mr. Lamsiem as Recording Secretary. On that day the so called Kuki Baptist Youth Fellowship (KBYF) was established.
With the rechristening of KBA to TBA on 30th of September, KBYF was also changed as TBYF, and later on as TBAYF. The first office bearers were Mr. Lamsiem, President; Mr. Lalsat Sitlhou, Vice President; Mr. Sehchon, Secretary and Mr. Hemdou, Treasurer.
