What we do

Creative mission

We want all young people and teenagers to hear the good news of Jesus!

School tours

Using relevant, dynamic, impacting bands and artists we will tour middle and high schools with key messages including ‘No More Gangs,’ ‘Still Standing’ (mental health and resilience) and Greatest Of All Time (the role of influencers on young people and society). Each tour will end with a high energy concert which will culminate in a bold proclamation of the gospel and coordinated, impactful follow up in and by local churches.

Genetik Sessions

These are creative after school clubs engaging middle school students by teaching rapping, hip hop, vocals, instruments, street dance, song production. Using skilled Christian coaches to equip young people with practical performance skills, mentoring and outreach opportunities through concerts and shows.

Equipping and training

Raising up the next generation and equipping evangelists so that more people can hear and share the gospel is at the core of our DNA.

The Charge

This program effectively trains young people to always be ready to share the hope of Jesus that is in their hearts. It is not just a theoretical course. Students hit the streets to pray and share the gospel. This new-found confidence ensures the good news of Jesus ripples through their friends and families as they share their faith and begin to set up Christian unions and host Youth Alpha courses.

Message School Of Evangelism

This 10-month course equips young people in all aspects of Christian character, evangelism, service and mission. The primary centre is in Manchester, England but there are new campuses being formed in Cape Town, South Africa, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (Portuguese speaking) and Vancouver, Canada.

Community transformation

Everyone needs to hear the good news of Jesus so our teams head into some of the hardest-to-reach places to do just that.

Prayer

The local church commits to pray for the community through prayer walking, specific prayer meetings and innovative online mapping technology.

Serve

The church leaves the building and loves on its neighbors serving sacrificially through ‘Love Where U Live’. This might look like yard work, decorating, collecting litter and trash, adopting community spaces, running BBQs, sports camps and so much more.

Looking for relevant and intentional ways to share the good news of Jesus.

‘What’s so impressive about The Message Trust is its relentless focus on young people who traditionally have been the hardest to reach – especially those living in disadvantaged communities and in prison.
