Your support is growing the church through young lives

“What if it happened?”

Imagine it: each year for the next five years, 5% more people coming to faith in Jesus and joining your church.

Can you imagine the ripple of revival across your community?

Right now, youth and children’s ministry is at the heart of God’s extraordinary work in Sydney, the Illawarra and beyond.

Did you know that…

• 78% of people in church today made a first decision for Christ before they turned 18?

• And a quarter of your neighbours are under 18?

The most fruitful mission field is in your community – right on our doorsteps.

Because you care about the future of God’s church, your partnership through Youthworks is making a difference where it counts most:

• At a recent youth event, 20% of teens decided to follow Jesus.

• In each of the past four Januarys, 14% of church camp attendees turned to Christ.

If this happened in a Sunday service … you’d call it revival!

This is living proof that God is drawing young hearts to himself – and you’re playing a vital part.

You’re helping equip churches to reach young people – investing in ministry training, supporting SRE teachers, nurturing intergenerational relationships, and embracing multicultural opportunities – you’re sowing seeds that will grow lifelong disciples and future leaders of the faith.

As Psalm 78:4b reminds us, “we will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord” (NIV).

Young people long for a church that welcomes, nurtures, and empowers them to mature in Christ.

God is already at work. You’re joining him in raising up a new generation of disciple-makers and leaders through your partnership with Youthworks – thank you.
