Who We Are
A Community That Builds Leaders
RCCG YAYA Canada (formerly YASM) is the vibrant youth and young adult wing of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Canada. We are a national youth-focused registered charity organization in Canada committed to equipping young people with the tools, networks, and confidence to thrive in this generation. Our motto, “BE THE EXAMPLE” (1 Timothy 4:12), is not just a slogan—it is our mandate to live lives of integrity, excellence, and service.
We combine mentorship, faith-centered guidance, leadership training, and career development to support youth holistically, spiritually, socially, and economically.
We don’t just run programs. We cultivate transformation.

A Story of Transformation
“When I joined YAYA, I was unsure of my direction. Through mentorship and the Village Council, I gained clarity about my career path and confidence in my faith. I now lead confidently in my workplace and community.”
