What is Harvest?

Harvest attracts around 1,000 young people from the North (and beyond) each year to a creatively constructed tent city in our new site in Teesside. Harvest gives young people (ages 12 to early 20’s) a unique opportunity to connect with God over 5 days, away from the usual distractions of home, work, school or college. Harvest continues to be used by God to impact thousands of lives.

In August 2009 many young people from all over the North East and braved the wind to spend time with God, to get to grips with the bible and to worship. Young people were equipped to go back to school, workplaces and churches ready to make a difference. Over 70 young people committed their lives to Jesus and many more went deeper with God.

The Harvest Management Group administers the Harvest Trust Fund which exists to aid young people who have attended Harvest that wish to take part in year long or short term mission work. Each year at Harvest a collection is taken for the fund so that young people can apply to the trust for a contribution towards any fundraising needed for them to take part in their planned mission. Below is a link to the guidelines which you can download that outlines the trust fund criteria and how to apply.
