Activities marking the 25th anniversary celebration of the Diocese of Lagos West will no doubt be incomplete without the all-important Youth Summit with the theme, "It s The Lord s Doing: Youths Stepping into Destiny".

The event, held at the Bola Memorial Church, Ikeja Lagos on Sunday 17th November 2024, had in attendance youths and Youth leaders from all the parishes of the Diocese of Lagos West.

In his address, the Diocesan, Rt. Revd. Dr. James Olusola Odedeji, charged the youths to be good ambassadors of Christ and the church by not engaging in vices like ' yahoo-yahoo’ and hook ups'. He enjoined youth leaders to ensure that youths take their rightful place in the church, while appealing to the youths to remain in the Anglican Communion by staying focused; for they are the future of the church.

In his exposition, the Keynote speaker, Professor Benjamin Popoola, Deputy Vice Chancellor, Ajayi Crowther University, Oyo, referred to the youths as his friends while dwelling on positive attitudinal structure which he described as the key to fulfilling destiny and God s purpose.

He enumerated such attitudinal principles as: Self Control, Humility, Resilience, Responsibility, Mentorship as well as High Moral Values.

The summit climaxed with a Panel Discussion Session, Praise and Worship, Breakout Session, followed by the episcopal blessings.
