Upper Room Youth - Core Values

"We do what we value, and we value what we do."

"You may tell me an order of your priorities, but your actions will tell me the true order."

"If ye know these things , blessed are ye if ye do them." [John 13:17]

"But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves." [James 1:22]

We're the Youth Ministry of the Upper Room Ministry of Vanuatu. We are committed to helping the young people of Port Vila and Vanuatu connect with Jesus (repent of their sins and make Jesus the Lord of their lives), to one another (join a local church), and to a lost world (obey the Great Commission). [Click here to learn more about Vanuatu.]

We believe Jesus to be the greatest champion who ever lived. And because He lives in us though His spirit, we through Him can also be the champions of our generation, this generation. We have been called to make an impact for JESUS in our world, here and now. We call ourselves His-Story Makers (History Makers).

The motto of Upper Room Ministry is "Changed In His Presence". We believe only God has the power to change lives. God inhabits a person upon invitation, and God inhabits the praises of His people. And when He does, He transforms and changes lives.
