Less than 4% of Gen Z have a biblical worldview. We exist to establish their confidence in God‘s word and mission for their lives. Our Wilco United and Fireplace initiatives have given access to both teen and young adult leaders desiring to grow in character and proclaim Jesus to their friends. Through these initiatives this past year, we’ve equipped 1,066 teens with our discipleship resources and trained 1864 new students to share their faith in our city.

Every week we equip teens and young adults by preparing them to lead in their sphere of influence on high school campuses, college campuses, in their neighborhoods or in the nations. In addition, we strategically unite the broader church in our area through quarterly dinners that foster cooperative ministry among those leading our youth. Our Merge initiative has brought together 1,682 young adults, calling them from unity into mission.

We ignite this generation to share the love of Jesus with friends and strangers alike. The fruit has been enormous in the past year. Our Wilco United events have seen 1,211 teens surrender their life to Jesus in our area. Additionally, through Fireplace, we’ve initiated 7384 gospel conversations on Broadway while our “Jesus tractor and truck” sowed 200 miles of seed to 121,875 bar hopping neighbors.
