History of Christ Ambassadors
Assemblies of God, the largest Pentecostal movement in the world was formed in United States in 1914. From the beginning the church acknowledged the part of the youths for evangelization of the world.
In 1924 Pentecostal Youth for Christ was formed for the harmonization of the different youth ministries. Later it enlarged its ministries and changed as Christ Ambassadors. Christ Ambassadors has made enormous contribution towards the evangelization of the world.
Youth and Sunday school ministries were lively even in the beginning of the Assemblies of God in Kerala. But the arrival of missionary A. E. Sorbo accelerated the youth ministry and “Christ Ambassadors” gained an organized formation.
In 1951 the District Conference discussed about the significance of the youth ministry and in 1954 Rev. A. E. Sorbo was appointed as the Christ Ambassador’s Counselor. In the same year Pastor M. Johnson was appointed as the President of CA.
In 1956 the by laws were discussed and approved and the first election was conducted. Pastor P. D. Johnson, Pastor M. C. Jacob, Mr. L. Sam and Mr. John Thomas were elected as the President, vice president, secretary and treasurer respectively.
“Christ for All and All for Christ” is the theme of this movement. From then on wards the Christ Ambassadors of the Assemblies of God Malayalam District Council has got potential leadership.
Moving towards the current decade, Christ Ambassadors has been cherishing the legacy of historic contributions to the progress of Assemblies of God. This movement has raised many Christian leaders, evangelists and pastors who have played a vital role in the evangelization and mission movements across India and abroad. Christ Ambassadors has initiated many programs from the local church bodies for developing the youngsters in our churches.
