The National Secretariat

The idea of establishing a National Secretariat came into being in the year 2006 when the leadership of the pioneer chapter thought it wise to spread the fellowship to other higher institutions of learning.

The caretaker committee of the National Secretariat was headed by Mr. Masev, Michael Imoter (now Rev. Imoter Masev) who later became the pioneer National President.

Functions

The National Secretariat coordinates and monitors all the activities of all the chapters of the Fellowship.

Activities

  • Revival Weekend
  • Leaders' Summit

  • National Convention

Leadership Structure

The Fellowship is a branch of NKST Youth Ministry which is headed by the Director of Youth Ministry. At the local levels, the Fellowship is led by an Executive Committee (EXCO) as stipulated in the Fellowship's constitution, headed by the President both at the Chapter and National level, with two (2) patrons who usually serve within the duration of 4 years.
