Communities where Christ is least known

Children and youth

Following Namibia’s independence in 1990, a generation has grown up for whom Jesus is no longer relevant. About 55 per cent of Namibia’s population is aged 25 years and under, and most have not heard the gospel. Namibian youth are no longer brought up attending church as their parents were, and they see the morals and values that their elders preach hardly lived out. 

Young people are increasingly drifting into a secular life style. SIM works in community development with disadvantaged children, and, through ministry at the Namibia Evangelical Theological Seminary (NETS), assists in equipping church leaders to grasp the opportunities to reach children and youth with the Gospel.
