Young people aren’t just the future—they’re the leaders of today. Their faith, curiosity, creativity, enthusiasm, and joy are needed right now. They are gifted members of God’s family, fully capable of real impact in our city.

NextGen walks alongside kids and teens as they discover Jesus and build a lifelong relationship with Him. At every stage of their journey to adulthood, we support them through peer-based communities that engage them where they are, just as they are.
