Generational strategy
We know that each generation builds on the foundation of the one before. Each generation has different obstacles to conquer but we believe we have an opportunity to make an impact today, that will set up the generations to come. One key aspect of this vision is to see every Hillsong location in the UK have a permanent facility to extend the reach of the gospel and, impact local communities with the love of Jesus. We are believing for the church to put stakes in the ground and, for us to be the head and not the tail when it comes to the facilities we have to house the work of the church. Together we can leave a legacy of good stewardship that sets up the church for the future.
The Hillsong Foundation UK Consists of
These initiatives are an opportunity to meet specific needs across all of our Hillsong UK locations. Each location will focus on either “Generations” or “Welcome Home.” This targeted approach allows us to invest directly into the life of our locations and continue to see them move forward.
We can achieve more together through the collective effort of our entire Church. Currently, our National Initiative supports the ongoing renovation and upgrades of the Golders Green Hippodrome in North London. This venue holds immense potential for personal transformation and community outreach. It also offers revenue-generating possibilities, which will support our generational strategy of securing permanent facilities across all our locations.
Our aim is to create a meaningful impact on society through social Impact. This year, we will continue supporting our UK Social Impact Initiatives, such as Refugee Response, Green Light, AMP, Love Your Neighbour, and Community Grocers. Additionally, we will support our longstanding global partnerships. These initiatives and partnerships enable us to have a significant and sustainable social impact.
This year, our local initiatives will focus on two vital aspects of church life: “Welcome Home” and “Generations.”
As a Church we are passionate about creating spaces that host a “Welcome Home”; where people find belonging, relationship with Jesus, community, and purpose. Whether it’s forging friendships in the foyer or experiencing salvation during our services, every moment is significant to us. By investing in specific resources and equipment, we aim to empower each location to create environments for encounters with God and others.
We believe God is a generational God and He has always worked from one generation to the next. Our church is committed to paving the path for individuals, both young and old, to connect with Jesus and nurture their relationship with Him. Our aspiration is to create spaces that foster personal transformation and community engagement, equipping individuals, and igniting inspiration among the present generation and those yet to come.
In January 2022, we acquired The Hippodrome, a historic London landmark, which has since transformed into our vibrant and welcoming community hub. The Hippodrome now serves as the central location for our North London community, hosting our Sunday services, which have expanded to two services since our move. It has also facilitated baptism services, Team Nights, Sisterhood United, Young Adults and Youth gatherings amongst many other events.
Additionally, this versatile space has allowed us to expand our Amplified Arts Academy, introducing a second site at The Hippodrome. This initiative empowers local youth to explore their artistic talents, creating opportunities that amplify their potential.
As part of our National Initiative, our next project involves renovating the bathrooms and opening up the foyers to be a larger space. This renovation will enhance our impact as a church in North London and transform the Hippodrome into a revenue source that supports our Church’s outreach.
The possibilities for The Hippodrome’s contribution to our Church and the community are vast. We have only begun to tap into this potential and eagerly anticipate what the future holds.
