Andy Milne will lead a new Missional Youth Church Network (MYCN), in partnership with Church Army and the Archbishop of York Youth Trust. Beginning in the North of England, the vision is to establish at least thirty MYC over the next five years, enabling 11- to 18-year-olds to build community and discover faith in Jesus Christ. Local schools and colleges, churches and community projects will work together in partnership to reimagine church for this generation. Youth leaders and volunteers will become part of a wider learning network accessing training, encouragement and support for one another as they build for the future. The Archbishop of York, Dr John Sentamu, said he has spoken to many young people who were not keen on attending Church but were fascinated by the love of God and wanted to know more about Jesus. He said, ‘This is a live issue for them. Young people have so much to learn.’
