CAN promises to unite Christian youths in Gombe

Gombe State youths’ chapter of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has promised to unite Christian youths in the state irrespective of their denominations and ethnic groups.
 
Its chairman, Mr. Yusuf Haske, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Gombe that one of the major problems affecting Christian youths was disunity.
 
“I will make sure that I use this season of lent to unite Christian youths in the state irrespective of denominations and ethnic backgrounds,” he said.
 
He said that he would mobilise his members to enter every nook and cranny of Gombe State and preach the gospel of Christ.
 
“We will intensify efforts on rural evangelism, because there are people who are ignorant of how Jesus Christ died on the cross for their sins,” he said.
 
Haske said that his members would also preach to prison inmates on the need to change their lifestyles and lead a better life after serving their jail terms.
 
“We will visit them, strengthen them and let them know that where they are is not the end of their lives.
 
“That they can still be useful to themselves and the society after they will have completed their jail terms,” he said.
 
He also promised to organise discipleship and skills acquisition training for the youth from where after graduation become evangelists and self reliant.
