Trans young people are too often spoken about as a political issue, a cultural controversy, or a theological battleground – rather than as real people with real stories. Many youth leaders are left asking: How do we respond with wisdom, compassion, and integrity when a trans young person is part of our youth group or wider community?

In this YSE Deep Dive, Chris Curtis shares his personal journey of listening and learning from trans young people themselves, alongside exploring the range of ways youth ministry can thoughtfully approach this complex and sensitive topic. Expect a space that is honest, grounded, and practical – helping you lead with both conviction and care.

You are invited to attend a showing of the documentary film, ‘The People’s Emergency briefing’. This is based on the National Briefing at Westminster in November 2025, where experts gave presentations to MPs and other decision makers about the climate and nature crisis.  The presentations covered vital information about risks to health, food security, and economic stability, amongst other issues. This important film is being shown so that everyone can learn the truth about this escalating crisis which is already changing our lives. 

There will be several showings of this film in Reading. We are particularly inviting Christians in Reading to attend one being held on 23 April at 7.30pm at St John and St Stephen's Church, Orts Road. There will be a post film discussion about what we can do to turn things around and how we can prepare for the changes ahead. Entrance is free. Please could you advertise this and come along - with a friend. There is a poster attached so that you can advertise this in your churches.

You can find out more about the briefing at https://www.nebriefing.org/. Email reading@greenchristian.org.uk for queries about the event on 23rd.
