Lead Like Jesus encounter programme held at Impur

The Ao Baptist Arogo Mungdang (ABAM) Youth Ministry organized the Lead Like Jesus (LLJ) Encounter for the Nagamese Baptist Churches Association (NBCA) from April 14 to 16, 2025, in Impur. The event was attended by 52 NBCA Pastors, Women Pastors and Youth Pastors.

This encounter program was conducted under the programme, “Share your needs and share your resources” of the Nagaland Baptist Church Council (NBCC)  Youth Department. ABAM, as one of the partner associations, took the opportunity to share its resources and conducted this program for the NBCA.

The LLJ encounter is a movement designed to help leaders live, love, and lead like Jesus by letting go of their earthly status, which can create pride and fear—the root causes of failure. Instead, it encourages participants to embrace humility and love, which are essential qualities for effective leadership. Recognizing the power of influence in servant leadership, this movement has thrived worldwide for years and has positively impacted both personal and professional lives.

“ABAM Youth Ministry was fortunate to host this significant encounter for the NBCA, providing an opportunity for leading pastors, women pastors, and youth pastors to engage with this transformative movement. Participants had time to reflect on their current leadership styles and embrace the role of servant leader,” Rev L Yapang Mollier, Officiating Executive Secretary, ABAM Impur said in an update.

“As these leaders return to their respective churches, we look forward to witnessing the NBCA move towards a community defined by humility and love,” he added.

The facilitators for the program were Toshi Sanglir, Secretary, ABAM YM, and Teka Imchen, Coordinator, ABAM YM.
