How It Works


 

We don't want to spend all our time sitting around in meetings debating structure. However we do know it's important for people to understand where they can fit in!

 
Forge is led by Dan Brown

"I want to see every teenager in Sheffield given the chance to meet God, choose to follow him and take hold of everything that he's got for them. I believe that the church can be the best vehicle to make this happen"

 

Core Team

Forge has a core team of youthworkers that work together to put on events and provide resources whilst individually leading their own youthwork somewhere in the city.

 

Vision Groups

For all of the vehicles city wide events we gather teams of like minded youth workers who feel they specifically want to influence an area of the network. This will include groups to develop and grow events such as Glory Revolution, Showcase, training like Redefine and ministries such as Forge Sports.

 

Accountability

Forge is currently accountable through the leadership structures of St Thomas Church Philadelphia, with the full support of the senior team.

 

Finance

Forge Youth has been funded through St Thomas' Philadelphia and the Kings Centre.

For the day to day running of Forge Youth we are largely dependent on a network of supporters such as individuals or cell groups making small monthly donations such as £10, £20 or £50. they then get regular updates on what is going on and gather together annually for a celebration night. If you feel you could be one of these supporters, or would like to make a one-off donation that would be amazing! just click on this link.

All events and activities are dependent upon local churches, external organisations and fund-raising/bid writing. Forge is financially accountable to St Thomas Church Philadelphia and the Forge Network.
