organizations where we mould future secretaries with right skills and
technologies. The National YMCA needs to concentrate more on understanding the
mission of YMCA which may lead the members and leaders to involve YMCA with
right perspective and understanding.
Church & YMCA
YMCA is a good platform where all can come
together and involve in society for making a change. Theological education
is needed for YMCA secretaries. It gives the right Christian perspective for
YMCA secretaries to involve in society with Christian values &
principles.
United Theological College is a fantastic
theological institution with more than a century of historical importance and
existence and has moulded 1000`s of church leaders with an ecumenical outlook.The
existence of YMCA training department at UTC is of great importance for both
YMCA and UTC. The training in UTC introduces the YMCA secretaries to an
ecumenical world which gives secretaries a proper outlook for their work.
