The Message Trust is a worldwide movement passionately sharing the love of Jesus Christ in words and actions with the hardest-to-reach young people and communities.
We are passionate about reaching young people in South Africa – seeking to break the cycle of poverty, unemployment, gangsterism and crime. Our purpose is to raise up generations of urban heroes.
