Two brand new Genetik courses launch this September, designed to train the next generation of Christian youth evangelists: Genetik 10 and Genetik Elements.

Why Genetik? Let our graduates explain.

Can you recommend anyone for our Genetik courses?

Genetik 10, our new flagship year-out training course, lasts a full academic year (ten months). The course puts students right at the heart of Message life – living with families connected to the ministry or in Eden homes across Manchester. Daily training and placements with Message teams will equip young people to share the gospel relevantly and live evangelistically.

Two tracks will hone students’ gifting as performers or urban evangelists: Urban Ministry students will learn from intensive placements with Eden teams across the city. Creative Ministry students will get expert tuition to nurture their skill as dancers, rappers, DJs, musicians and vocalists.

Genetik Elements is designed to give existing youth workers fast-track access to official accreditation. Students attend ten monthly training days and are assessed in observed placements.

‘Since we began training young evangelists ten years ago, the world has changed,’ comments course leader Mat Walls. ‘More churches are offering their own “year-out” schemes. That’s why we’re giving the option for a flexible way to get the best of The Message’s experience in a monthly one-day format.’

Places are now available on both courses and potential students are encouraged to submit applications immediately for this September’s intake.
