About Harrogate Youth

Belong, grow, and shine for Jesus

We’re a community of young people (aged 11-18) in Harrogate who are passionate about following Jesus and helping others discover His love. Whether you’re curious about faith, new to Church, or have been a Christian for years, you’re welcome just as you are.

We are an inclusive family where everyone is valued, listened to, and encouraged. Together we’re learning what it means to be disciples who know Jesus and share His hope with the world around us.

Through friendship, worship, open conversations, and plenty of fun, we want to grow in faith and make Jesus known in our schools, our community, and beyond.

Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.

Timothy 4:12 NIV

Explore your faith

Everything we share here has been checked by our youth leaders. We share different ways people understand the Bible so that you can make your own decisions on your faith journey. You might not agree with everything, and that’s okay! Learning to disagree well means understanding where others are coming from. Remember: nothing and no one can make you less loved or less worthy in God’s eyes.
