GENERATE

Laying a Foundation for the Next Generation

THE PROBLEM

Nearly 70% of young adults stop regularly attending church during or after college. Many are spiritually hungry but disconnected, skeptical, or unsure where they belong.

This season is formative — beliefs are shaped, habits are formed, and many drift away   from faith not because they reject Jesus, but because they lack a spiritual home.

Generate exists to meet young adults where they are — creating a space marked by worship, Scripture, prayer, and community — and helping them take real steps toward Jesus and into the local church.

OUR MISSION

Generate exists to reach young adults by creating worship gatherings and pathways that lead them into lifelong faith, spiritual maturity, and active participation in the local church.

We partner closely with local churches to serve, not compete with them.

WHAT GOD HAS ALREADY DONE THROUGH GENERATE

Over the last 2.5 years, Generate has seen:

  • 100+ salvations as young adults step into faith

  • Hundreds of rededication's and renewed spiritual commitment

  • Thousands attend gatherings across our partner churches

  • Countless young adults discipled and connected into local churches

With the help of our church partners and individual partners, God has already used Generate to transform lives, and your support now multiplies this impact.

WHAT YOUR SUPPORT MAKES POSSIBLE

Every Generate gathering and discipleship pathway is funded by faithful monthly partners.

Your generosity helps provide:

  • Worship nights that are accessible, operated in excellence, and Spirit-led

  • Teaching and discipleship resources for young adults

  • Prayer teams, guest services, and ministry infrastructure

  • Equipment, venue costs, and operational needs

Real costs. Real ministry. Real impact.

WHY MONTHLY PARTNERS MATTER

Generate is in a foundational season.

Generate is now its own independent ministry organization, and while our partner churches contribute support, we are also relying on individual partners to fully fund our gatherings, discipleship pathways, and expansion into new cities. Being a Partner now is more than just giving — it’s helping establish the foundation for a ministry that will reach thousands of young adults for years to come.

Monthly partners make it possible to build this ministry with stability, integrity, and long-term vision. Rather than operating gathering-to-gathering, consistent support allows us to focus on discipleship, leadership development, and sustainable growth.

We are currently building a base of Partners who are helping lay the foundation for lasting, eternal impact.

By becoming a Partner, you are joining a select group of visionaries who are helping shape the spiritual future of young adults. Partners get to say, “I was here at the beginning. I helped build something that will last for generations.” You are not just giving; you are investing in a movement that will touch lives far beyond what we can see today.

WAYS TO BE A PARTNER

  • $25/month – Supports gathering logistics and ministry supplies

  • $50/month – Supports venue costs & production

  • $100/month – Supports future staff roles and helps us prepare for another city

  • Other amount – As the Lord leads

Every amount matters. Faithfulness builds eternal impact.

WHAT PARTNERS RECEIVE

  • Regular newsletters with updates from our gatherings

  • Tax-deductible giving with year-end statements

  • The knowledge that they helped build something lasting that is making eternal impact

  • An invite to our annual partners vision night
