The reason why we have chosen the name REAL is because people are looking for something different, something authentic, some REAL. As you can see from the stats above young adults have rejected church and at the same time rejected God. Young adults are looking for something that impacts there every day life, something they can’t live without. We believe that God is essential to your life and so is the church. You disagree? Well we are excited to help you discover that for yourself.
