Adventist Youth on a Mission
About Us

AYM Carolina is an Adventist youth ministry based in North Carolina. It is a movement led by young people for young people who desire spiritual revival, transformation, and a deeper relationship with Christ. It is our desire for youth to grow in and experience the love of Christ and to share His love to hearts in need of healing. We do this through our regular bi-annual retreats and Mission Rallies throughout the Carolinas.
