Time management is frequently mentioned as a challenge in allocating time for spiritual activities.

Busy Schedules
- Very busy schedule even on Sabbaths (handling church programs) - Saturday AY becomes the time for physical rest (catching up on sleep) - Burn out even in church because AYP members are given the bulk of responsibilities to handle the church programs - difficulty relating to the youth (pre-college, college-aged youth), as well as other professionals who have already started their own families (busy na sa own families nila)
Young professionals in AY programs often struggle to balance work, personal responsibilities, and church activities. Time management can be tough, and taking on leadership roles sometimes leads to burnout. Financial pressures and the feeling that some church programs don’t address their needs—like career guidance or spiritual growth—can leave them feeling disconnected. Generational and cultural gaps in the church may create misunderstandings, and some young adults feel isolated if they don’t have peers in similar life stages. Challenges like; Time management Lack of peer support Burnout and fatigue Cultural and generational differences Leadership pressure Navigating secular influences
Lack of cooperation from other young professionals due to their busy schedules and remote employment areas.
