"The happiest people don’t have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything. Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly, and share your tea with the world instead of hiding behind your cup."

Welcome to Takili AY Hub!

Hi there! We’re Tanisha and Kilia, and together we’re the heart behind the Takili AY Hub Blog. Our passion for youth ministry drives everything we do, and we’re thrilled to share that with you here! We know how challenging it can be to come up with fresh, exciting ideas for Adventist Youth (AY) programs. Whether you’re just starting out or feeling stuck after years of planning, the struggle is real! That’s why we decided to create this blog — to be your go-to resource for creative, impactful AY programs. This year, we’re taking a fresh approach to ministry by sharing the programs we’ve already developed and continuing to create new ones. Our goal is to provide a library of ideas that you can adapt to fit the unique needs of your congregation, wherever you are in the world. At Takili AY Hub, we’re committed to helping revive and support AY societies globally. We hope this blog inspires and empowers you to plan meaningful in-reach and outreach programs that make a lasting impact in your church & community.

  This program is suitable for the month of love. Materials: Strips of paper, markers, tape, scenarios 1-3 written on papers, small card or paper for your love notes. Program Structure: Welcome & Opening prayer Song service Opening Song: (A song focusing on love) Aim/motto/pledge/song: Scripture Reading: John 15:13/ Romans 5:8 Devotion: Living Out Agape Love “Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends.” – John 15:13 “But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” – Romans 5:8 Agape love is the deepest and most selfless form of love. It is sacrificial, unconditional, and entirely focused on the well-being of others.

  Suitable for Father's Day Fatherhood Isn't Just a Title --It's a Calling Theme: Honoring fathers by highlighting their spiritual impact and emotional influence. Opening prayer  Song service  Welcome Scripture  Aim/motto/pledge/ song Devotion  Special music  Program: Presentation: The Power of a Father’s Presence Opening remarks: The greatest gift a father can give his child is not his money or material things, it’s his consistent, godly presence. We live in a world where many children are growing up in homes without fathers. Some fathers are absent because of difficult life situations. Others may be present physically, but emotionally and spiritually distant. This evening, I want us to pause and honor the fathers who show up;  the praying dads, the protective uncles, the grandfathers who step in, the mentors who guide when biological Dads aren’t around. These men remind us that fatherhood isn’t just a title - it’s a calling. ⸻ Why Fathers Matter Deep...
