About IYDT
What is IYDT?

It is a mobile discipleship evangelistic ministry with the intention of empowering young people and churches through networking, teachings, and mentorship. IYDT equips individuals through annual teachings and occasional workshops, tailored to meet the evolving needs of the communities it serves.
