15,000 Youth Unite for JIL Youth Summit 2025, Taking a Stand for Godâs Name, His Power, and Their Generation
Over fifteen thousand (15,000) young people from the Jesus Is Lord Church Worldwide are set to converge for the JIL Youth Summit 2025, a two-day gathering at the Smart Araneta Coliseum on December 19â20, 2025 themed âLegacy Warriors â Battle Mode: On!â
With JILâs nationwide reach and presence in 75 countries, the Summit comes at a pivotal moment. In an era when truth is contested, accountability is fragile, and moral lines continue to blur, this generation of youth is choosing to step forwardânot quietly, but with convictionâtaking a stand for Godâs Name, His power, and their generation.
According to Ptr. Jovi Villanueva-Binalla, JIL Youth Affairs Director, this yearâs Summit marks âa defining shiftâfrom merely bearing a legacy to courageously contending for it.â
âAs Jude 1:3 declares, âBeloved⌠I found it necessary to write, appealing to you to contend for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints.â That is the mandate we are answering today,â Ptr. Jovi said.
Ptr. Jovi emphasized that todayâs âLegacy Warriorsâ âdonât just inherit a legacyâthey defend and fight for it. They protect and preserve it, especially at a time when fake news, misinformation, and disinformation distort truth and attempt to undermine the legacy entrusted to us by the âgiants of faith.â
This conviction echoes Psalm 106:8 âYet he saved them for his nameâs sake, that he might make known his mighty power.â A reminder that God preserves His people so His Name is honored and His power made knownâa responsibility this generation of youth is choosing to embrace.
At the core of the Summit is spiritual formation and nation-building discussionâa call for young people to anchor their lives in Godâs Word and become witnesses of His truth, His power, and His righteousness in their generation.
The Summit challenges every youth to: Seek truth even as misinformation spreads fast; Choose righteousness over convenience and compromise; Grow in spiritual maturity, rooted in prayer, worship, and a grounded walk with God; Live with integrity in school, at work, at home, and online; Stay informed and involved, holding leaders and institutions accountable with wisdom and humility.
During the two days Summit, attendees can expect a full program of sessions, stories, and activities led by dynamic and reputable speakers and guestsâdesigned to inspire, strengthen, and empower the youth.
