Today our students had teaching about THE CHURCH, how it ties in with MISSION, and what the BIBLE says about it! We love bringing in so many internal & external wise leaders on these topics to share throughout the year. #gapyear #christiangapyear #evangelism #Jesus

Every Thursday morning we have the honour of hearing from our Eden Team members, sharing about loving their communities, churches, the most deprived communities and what it means to be a part of Eden and sharing Jesus in these places.

Tonight our students get to serve at the first gig for No More Knives Tour! Please be praying that the students from the schools visited by Message Bands will come, respond to The Gospel, and lay down their weapons! Our students will be stewarding and on Gospel Response teams.

"It’s great being able to go on a journey with other people who share a hunger for faith and growth, being able to be trans-parent with friends and sharpen each other." -Tolu, 2019 #alumni

Our students have been working hard different evenings of the week at their youth-focused placements. We love that we can partner with other churches and ministries around Manchester to give our students a wider experience applying what they are learning each week!

This week our students start their full day & evening placements! Whether at youth group, Message bus, Eden Partington or beyond, the students have many different opportunities to put into practice what they are learning and share the Good News with others around them.
