The NYSC scheme gives Nigerians an opportunity to serve their fatherland in the spirit of patriotism for a period of one irretrievable year of their life. During this period, Christain youths are much more opportunity to serve the one who owns not just a geographical location but the whole earth in itself under the platform on NCCF.
The establishment of the Nigerian Christain Corpers Fellowship itself is a fulfilment of prophecy given years before the creation of the NYSC scheme, the prophecy was given by Pa S.G Elton, a notable British missionary. The prophecy was given as thus:
” A time would come when the Nigerian Government would pay the Nigerian youth to preach the gospel in all nooks and crannies of the country.”
This prophecy was fulfilled in 1973 at the inception of the national youth service corps scheme.
NCCF consists of:
The Organizational Arm
The Fellowship Arm
The Family Arm
WHY NCCF
The answer to this is simple, Christ is coming to rapture the church (a united church) as a non-denominational/interdenominational body, NCCF promotes unity of the body of christ, giving everyone a platform as much as possible, alongside giving everyone an opportunity to serve God in an unbiased manner and to accept people (children of God) for who they are and not where they came from, the doctrines that agree with or dispute, likes and dislikes. We strongly believe that God is far bigger than our home church and the myopic views of him we posses by reason of our background that we have held on to for so long. And this single year of an adventure with God with other Christian colleagues of ours would do us no harm, but if well employed would leave us as better Christians with a deeper and wider view of God’s work.
That being said, we want to stress that NCCF is not a church or a subset of any ministry, it is a Christian fellowship owned by and controlled by Christian corpers united together in God’s love and will. Like stated before it is the only Christian fellowship recognised officially by the NYSC.
Also it is not advisable to risk becoming an island during your service year (Eccl. 4:9-10), you definitely need the love of home away from home, and you can be sure to get that at NCCF any day, anytime and under any condition — we are of course one big family united in love. Also, your membership of NCCF at the state level strategically opens you up to care and attention on a national note and not just the state you are involved with.
Serve your fatherland and much more serve God under NCCF during this irreversible one year of your life. Make it count!
