We've gone from zero to breakthrough

When Kingdom Living Church had no young people left, prayer sparked a bold step. Now, with Limitless Pioneers, their youth group is changing everything, says pastor Desmond Egharevba.

Looking out at the congregation at Kingdom Living Church, Des Egharevba couldn’t see a single teen or child.

It was 2022, the UK was still recovering from lockdown and the Sunday school that had thrived since Kingdom Living was planted had dwindled as families had moved away during the pandemic.

Not a single young person was left, so the church brought the problem to God.

“I go for a prayer walk most mornings and one day sensed God was saying we should reach out to young people in our area,” says Des, who has pastored the church in Staines – near Heathrow Airport – since 2009.

“He said he wanted us to do this because through them he would reach their families too.”

The church began to pray and sensed God speaking about starting a youth group.

“We had a prophetic word about a girl carrying corn seeds in her dress. Those seeds fell onto the street, began to grow and from them came a harvest of corn.

“We began to claim that picture and believe God for it.”

Without finances to fund their early plan of hiring a youth pastor, Des instead contacted Emma Gaze at Limitless Pioneers.
