Yorkshire and Humberside
Across Yorkshire and Humberside, we are passionate about sharing the gospel with young people and partnering with the local church through our different ministry areas.
Across the hub, we’re developing new Eden teams, running schools tours, putting on youth prayer events, and continuing to develop connections with local churches. We have a passion for evangelism and discipleship and encourage the local church and young people to be well equipped to share the good news of Jesus.
Saying ‘no’ to knives
We were recently in Sheffield with the No More Knives Tour, reaching over 3,600 students across four schools in the city with powerful lessons to equip and empower young people to say ‘no’ to knives. We even got to bring a message of hope into a community that has experienced the devastating impact of knife crime first-hand.
The week ended with our LIFT evangelistic event where 260 young people gathered to enjoy live music from our bands. Alongside the performances, team members shared their personal stories and presented the gospel through the4points, speaking hope and life into every young person. And 89 young people respond, each taking away a response pack!
We’re taking the No More Knives tour to every school across the Sheffield area, so if you know of a local school we should visit, pop us an email to [email protected].

Going all out for Jesus
Our schools teams have been running No More Knives tours across the country, heading into schools with lessons all about encouraging and equipping young people to say ‘no’ to carrying knives and to being involved in knife crime. As they did this, they got to share Jesus-centred truths with hundreds of young people.
