The 787 Collective gathers and resources congregations seeking to engage with young adults through creative ventures that deepen love for God, self, and others. Many congregations express a desire for more young people in their congregations, though often struggle to fulfil that desire. The 787 Collective centers the voices of young adults and invites congregations to listen, learn, and embrace the talents, gifts, and passions of young people not only for the future of the church, but the church today.  

If your congregation is looking to center young adult leadership for today and the future or if you’re looking to broaden your network by the sharing of ideas, creativity, and connection check out our website or join our Resilience Hub

Next Is Now

The Next Is Now report highlights young adults who were active in a college-age ministry and their ongoing faith formation in, and often beyond, congregations. This difficult season of transition fueled our desire to bridge the gap between college age and young adult ministry.
