Hey, I hope you are beginning to feel festive! |
Christmas: the open door into schools...
Christmas comes early in schools. And as this is a major Christian festival it is covered in the RE curriculum, giving the church many opportunities to reach pupils in lessons, assemblies, lunch clubs, and much more. Schools ministry is not just for a select few. Every church can serve and reach their local school at Christmas: 99% of young people DO attend school and 95% of young people DON’T attend church.
Check out these three great resources which will help you connect with your local school: Shine in schools (SU), Re:quest (YFC) and Because You’re Loved (Pais Movement). |

Gen Z Transforming MK |
HOPE MK brought together 88 young people and 45 adult volunteers for their seventh HOPE MK event over October half-term. Over four days they enjoyed fun-filled morning sessions, action-packed afternoons on community projects, yummy food and a cracking last night party. The morning sessions on Hebrews asked ‘What is faith and who are the heroes of the faith?' Twelve project hosts arranged community projects during the afternoons where young people got stuck in serving the community. There are great stories of God meeting with young people for the first time, or for the first time in a long time. The response cards showed 13 young people recommitted their lives to God, eight decided to follow God for the first time and become Christians, and two young people got healed of pain/injuries.

2020 & beyond… |
Youth Evangelism Conference 2020, this year in three locations; Cambridge [22nd Feb], NEW Bristol [7th Mar] and Manchester [21st Mar]. For 2020 we are pumped to have Mark Ritchie & Laura Hancock joining us in all three dates. This year’s theme is ‘For The Love Of God’ - the Love of God compels us to reach a generation, the Love of God is powerful and can't be contained, and this same Love drives out the fears [1 John 4:18] we have around reaching young people for Jesus in a post-Christian and post-truth society.
So for the Love of God let's bring His Love to this generation! We would love you and your youth team, church leader, and parents in your church, to join us in 2020. For more info and to book in, head to the website - early bird offer still on till 29th November! For even more off use the discount code - YEC2020HOPE

Amplify Applications for 2020/21 |
Applications are now open! Sign up a young evangelist you know, someone who you see with a passion for evangelism and reaching others! All the info and application forms here.
 Many people are believing 2020 will be a year of harvest, so a bunch of us have got together to say let’s pray into it and believe for all God is gunna do! Pray in 2020 on the 20th of each month at 20:20 for 20 minutes. Pray... that God will give many opportunities to speak about Christ. (Colossians 4:3 NLT). This is the invitation from HOPE Together to Christians of all denominations. Through Prayer 2020 we are asking God to work through all that is done in 2020 – personal witness; church outreach plans in villages, towns and cities; stadium events – evangelisation in all its many forms.
