We want to Reach our city and our world!
We will Raise up many effective living churches in many places, Evangelize our community and areas beyond, Accelerate Christian maturity, Champion the name and cause of Christ, and be Helping hands into a hurting world.
For more than 30 years, we have been passionate about sharing the hope of Jesus across our nation and beyond. Every week, we see lives transformed as people come to know Christ and grow in their faith.
We are also passionate about planting and strengthening local churches. To date, we have helped establish more than 1,200 churches across the UK, Europe, India and Africa. We believe thriving local churches bring hope, truth and transformation to communities.
We are called Destiny because we believe everyone has a God-given destiny. Our heart is to help people discover who God created them to be and equip them to live out that calling with confidence. Through discipleship, leadership development and ministry training, we are raising leaders who will influence their communities, workplaces, churches and nations for Christ.
We live in challenging times. Faith is increasingly marginalised, and Christian values are often pushed to the sidelines of society. Yet we believe God has not called His Church to retreat or remain silent. We are called to be a beacon of hope, shining with the love, truth and grace of Jesus and bringing Kingdom influence into every sphere of life.
Through Destiny College, we are training and equipping future leaders. Through our children's, youth and student ministries, we are investing in the next generation. Across our churches and mission work, we are seeing people stand strong in their faith and make a difference wherever God has placed them.
The mission is growing, but we cannot do it alone.
We need people who will stand with us in prayer, asking God for wisdom, courage and boldness as we continue to share the Gospel in today's culture. The challenges are real, but so is the opportunity to reach people with the message of Jesus.
We also need partners who will invest financially in this work. Your generosity helps train leaders, plant churches, reach communities, support the next generation and advance the Gospel across the UK and around the world.
Together, we can reach more people, raise more leaders, plant more churches and see more lives transformed by the power of Jesus Christ. Thank you for partnering with us.
