About Newday
To see God impact thousands
To play a role in stopping the drift in many young people’s lives.
We’ve had the privilege of seeing God do some incredible things in young people’s lives over the years: decisions to follow Christ, physical healings, deep hurts healed, questions answered, situations transformed, and lives equipped to live fully for Him.
We believe that when God grabs hold of a young person’s life, they have the potential to change the world. We call these young people our Newday Heroes.
Simply put, these Newday Heroes are our future. The next generation of leaders, taking the message of Jesus to the world: fathers, mothers, church planters, artists, entrepreneurs, teachers…policy shapers, movement makers, and courageous life givers.
Finding Purpose
Imagine what can happen when a generation of young people find their purpose in God and become an integral part of something bigger. A generation equipped and a nation transformed.
That’s why we want you to be a part of Newday. Together let’s rise up, take courage and do it.
