IGNITE 2025 marked a significant milestone as the 5th All India Camp for Church of Christ youth in India, with 110 participants from states across India. After feedback from the year before asking for a longer camp, it was extended to five days.

The theme focused on who the real enemy is and what believers are truly fighting against in daily life. Participants were encouraged to face challenges with the Armour of God: the Helmet of Salvation, Breastplate of Righteousness, Belt of Truth, Shield of Faith and Sword of the Spirit.

The Igniters were divided into six groups, each with two facilitators, for discussions, interactive sessions and a Bible quiz on the book of Luke. Activities included painting a flag to represent the Armour of God, researching each piece of Roman armour, riddles, a treasure hunt and a Friendship Night with coloured ribbons. Each team built one piece of a full set of armour from scratch, which was assembled and tried on by Bro. Ringdai.

Guest speakers led life-skill sessions on ‘Who Are We Fighting Against’, social media, etiquette, pornography and mental health, helping the Igniters approach real-life challenges from a biblical point of view.

Outdoors there was a water balloon battle between paired teams and a trip to nearby Nandi Hills to enjoy God's creation. A Cultural Night in traditional dress celebrated unity and diversity, and the camp closed with Sunday worship.

IGNITE 2024, the 4th All India Youth Camp, brought together around 101 participants from 8 states under the oversight of Bangalore Central Church of Christ.

The theme emphasised staying grounded in God's word when faced with life's choices, and living a life aligned with God's will. Six groups discussed “Jesus' Way” and “The Way of the World”, using practical examples to compare the two paths.

On the third day, themed “This is My Way”, participants drew roadmaps of the choices they will make in life. Teams also made signboards for “This is the Way” and “This is Not the Way”.

Alongside the Bible lessons there were quizzes, games, a movie night and a surprise on-the-spot food competition. One key piece of feedback was a request for a longer camp to allow more time for fellowship.

IGNITE 2023 was the 3rd All India Camp for Church of Christ youths, with close to 100 participants from all over India and some from outside India.

The theme was based on Jesus' life (“I am the Light of the world”) and our response to His teaching (“You are the light of the world”).

This was my first experience in Ignite and I loved to be a part of it. The quiz based on the book of Matthew enhanced my knowledge of Christ as the light of the world. I gained an understanding of the importance of teamwork through the fun-filled games and activities.

It was also a golden opportunity to meet the brethren in Christ around the world and discuss the word of God together. Until then let the light shine and glory be to God, the Father in Heaven.

The annual camp for Church of Christ youths in India brought together about 75 participants from all over India, in keeping with our vision of triggering their faith to achieve great things for the Lord.

The theme was based on Paul's missionary journeys. The youths drew the journeys on a large map and then planned their own missionary journey on a map of India.

Apart from Bible learning, group discussions, team activities, a quiz and a panel discussion, the youths enjoyed adventure activities run by trained staff and volunteers.

IGNITE 2018, the All India Camp for Church of Christ Youths, welcomed 50 participants from 7 states: from BBC church, Mysore, Mumbai, Kochi, Trivandrum, Chennai, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and the North East. Saju George and David Martin attended as observers, along with brethren from the Chennai church.

The youths enjoyed four days of learning, group discussions, team activities, a quiz, a panel discussion, singing, skits and a Sunday worship led entirely by the participants. Our congregation joined them for that worship at the camp.

The youths of our church who organised the camp had an amazing experience putting it together. We thank God for the opportunity for young people to trigger their faith for Christ and form friendships with fellow Christian youths.

On January 26th, Bangalore Central Church of Christ hosted the first-ever Radiant conference. Envisioned as an annual tradition, Radiant is designed to encourage, uplift and spiritually strengthen women while fostering deep fellowship within our community.

This year's theme focused on the working women in our families. The planning team was drawn to Lydia from the Book of Acts, a seller of purple cloth from Thyatira. Her few verses show how a woman can balance spiritual devotion, physical well-being, professional growth and relationships, and become a blessing to her household, church and community.

The day opened with a warm meet and greet, singing led by our sisters, an opening prayer and an ice-breaker, then moved through morning and afternoon sessions with lunch and fellowship in between.

Sessions

Each attendee received a takeaway gift to encourage her daily walk of faith. The day closed with a group photograph, a vote of thanks, prayer, and tea.
