Following the formation of the Nagaland Christian Revival Church in 1962, the church felt the need to nurture and establish young leaders to fellowship in the principles and teachings of Christian beliefs. Following various initiatives and discussions, the ACRYA was official formed in 1969 at the Christian Revival Church, Kohima village with Psalms 126: 3 “The Lord has done great things for us” as its motto.
Earlier, the ACRYA was known under different nomenclatures such as the Angami Christian Youth Fellowship, Kohima District Christian Revival Youth Fellowship. The ACRYA nomenclature officially came into use only in 2006.
