Vision

To see every young person move beyond isolation and adversity to rediscover freedom and their God-given Value, Identity and Purpose.

​

Mission

We create places of reconnection. Through our education hubs for young people outside mainstream school, as well as our professional counselling, therapy and mentoring services for those who have experienced challenging life stories or who experience the world deeply and uniquely, we help young people reconnect with relationships, learning, healing and hope. Across all we do, every young person is known, valued and supported as they move beyond isolation and adversity to rediscover freedom and their God-given Value, Identity and Purpose.

​

Ethos

Progeny is a Christian charity founded upon biblical values and a Christian worldview.

Our faith shapes the way we serve others. We seek to reflect the love, compassion, truth and grace of Jesus Christ in every interaction. Inspired by the image of the Good Shepherd (Zechariah 11:16), we strive to care for those who feel lost, seek those who have become isolated, bring healing to those who are hurting and help every young person flourish.

​

Basis of Faith

We adopt the Evangelical Alliance Basis of Faith as our Basis of Faith. You can view this basis of faith here or below:

​

The one true God who lives eternally in three persons – the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

The love, grace and sovereignty of God in creating, sustaining, ruling, redeeming and judging the world.

​

The divine inspiration and supreme authority of the Old and New Testament Scriptures, which are the written Word of God – fully trustworthy for faith and conduct.

​

The dignity of all people, made male and female in God’s image to love, be holy and care for creation, yet corrupted by sin, which incurs divine wrath and judgement.

​

The incarnation of God’s eternal Son, the Lord Jesus Christ – born of the virgin Mary; truly divine and truly human, yet without sin.

​

The atoning sacrifice of Christ on the cross: dying in our place, paying the price of sin and defeating evil, so reconciling us with God.

 

The bodily resurrection of Christ, the first fruits of our resurrection; his ascension to the Father, and his reign and mediation as the only Saviour of the world.

​

The justification of sinners solely by the grace of God through faith in Christ.

​

The ministry of God the Holy Spirit, who leads us to repentance, unites us with Christ through new birth, empowers our discipleship and enables our witness.

​

The church, the body of Christ both local and universal, the priesthood of all believers — given life by the Spirit and endowed with the Spirit’s gifts to worship God and proclaim the gospel, promoting justice and love.

​

The personal and visible return of Jesus Christ to fulfil the purposes of God, who will raise all people to judgement, bring eternal life to the redeemed and eternal condemnation to the lost, and establish a new heaven and new earth.
