What happened at 3Generate 2021?
3Generate took place 29-31 October
750 Children attended from 21 Methodist Districts, together with 250 leaders as part of 65 children and young peoples groups.
180 volunteers and staff formed into a “delivery team” to look after venues, act as stewards, provide additional needs support, look after the accommodation village both during the day and overnight, together with registration, reception and a roving youth team.
Children and Young people had 15 different venues to explore, from a park, to a health and wellbeing centre, a town hall, and a theatre royal. All venues were arranged into a “Town” and delivered an exciting programme of both workshops, discussion and performance. An “out of town” arena provided a music venue for artist like ‘Astar’, Paul Cookson, Urban Praise.
Both the Delivery team and the children and young peoples groups spent the weekend in tents erected in 3 NEC Halls. 532 tents, of which the children and young peoples were recovered and recycled from summer festivals.
This was a wonderful weekend of gathering after a long time of being apart. It was joyous to see young people having deep conversations, and exploring their faith together alongside discovering new talents and having a whole lot of fun. Lives will have been changed because of this weekend and we give God great thanks
