London
Bringing transformation is at the heart of the Message Trust in London.
The work of The Message Trust in London focuses on changing individual lives, transforming communities and shaping the city by bringing the good news of Jesus. Through seven Eden teams and their partner churches, a vibrant central London coffee shop, outreach into schools and prisons, and an exciting programme of youth evangelism and discipleship, our small team work together to make a big difference.
Race, Culture and Faith
Exploring race, culture and faith from the Christian perspective, we have a brand-new lesson available for schools across the capital.
Tackling key topics like diversity, racism, prejudice and discrimination, and what the Bible says about it all, the lesson will challenge each and every one of us. Packed with music, spoken words, vox pops and teaching the lesson is fun, engaging and designed to equip and educate young people about how they can bring about change.
What We Do
Advance: The Gathering
The Gathering is a movement of young people who are passionate about sharing the gospel. The young people gather together for training in evangelism before hitting the streets and taking the good news of Jesus outside the four walls of the church.

Stories
