Wigan Next Generation
Wigan Next Generation
This is our work among 11-30 year olds, equipping and supporting our churches to help younger people become disciples of Jesus. We work in high schools, partner with organisations, reach out into the community, and take young adults on mission trips.
Next Generation Worship Night
On the last Sunday of the month, we host a worship night open for all. This is a creative time of worship based on a different theme each time with a focus on sung worship.

Equipping Churches
The Next Generation Team supports churches through the process of youth work. This could be helping local teams discern a new activity and equip them to deliver it, or working through how to refresh existing activities.
