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.
Advance: The Scattering
The Scattering is a week of mission for young people who want to put their faith into action! Running in the summer holidays in London between 3 to 9 August 2024, young people are trained and equipped for mission and are then scattered in teams to partner with a local church and proclaim the gospel to that community.
