By investing in leaders, New Wine seeks to inspire transformative, Spirit-led leadership across its network of churches.
Empowering Younger Generations: Recognising the urgent need to reach children, youth, and young adults, New Wine is dedicated to investing deeply in ministries that engage these age groups.
