Abstract

The Christian church especially the Seventh-day church is facing a challenge in keeping its standards in the domain of ethical values, to such an extent that pastors and church leaders seem overwhelmed. Unfortunately, the lack of effective ministries addressing such issue compels us to propose in this article three elements that can help to reduce the rate of declination of church standards and engage members, specifically youth in a discipleship committed to the preservation of values, engage the whole community in a mentoring of proximity and restoration, and finally to foster an inclusive community through fellowship. This article will focus on the community’s contribution as a whole, highlighting the family, elders, youth, and youth leaders as effective instruments in implementing values transmission based on discipleship, mentoring, and fellowship. The final purpose is to help the church incorporate these tools as ministries and help young people incorporate spiritual values as a way of life, engage them in transmitting these values through inclusive fellowship, and provide excellent mentorship to improve their commitments and their faith.
