Members are young people aged 16 to 30 who have committed to supporting the Adventist Youth Society by attending and participating in meetings and activities. This responsibility must not be taken lightly, because the mission of the Adventist Youth Society cannot be fulfilled without the full involvement of its members. The first members of the Gilmore AY Society were Samona Weller, Cherlange Frederic, and Roberto Colon. We agreed that five girls and five boys would be needed in order to start regular weekly meetings.

Leaders are members who have accepted responsibility for specific functions of the Adventist Youth Society. The leadership team will expand as our ministry develops.
