Hope Revolution Summer

“I felt I was really being used by God.”
“The whole week inspired more than awe.”
“God has helped me get rid of some of my pride and helped me to focus on others.”
These are some of the comments from our “delegates”, the young people who took part in a week of mission this summer. In Hope Revolution, more than 100 people joined forces for social action and outreach projects, demonstrating the love of God in the community in Kings Hedges, Barnwell and Cherry Hinton.

Teams of delegates were placed in local churches who linked them up with painting, gardening and cleaning projects in their area. One of the Barnwell residents was so impressed with the work done by their team of teenage gardeners, they tried to pay them for the job!

Cherry Hinton Baptist Church hosted a youth café for the second year running, and it’s great to see the work having a lasting impact. 2 girls we met last year are now regulars at church, and one young lad has just started playing drums at the service! As we left the site on Sunday, one 13 year old even promised to join the mission team next year!

We’re already planning for next Summer. Our goal is to see more young people having a fantastic experience of serving their community and sharing their faith in Jesus. If you’re interested in joining the team contact us!
