Join us in Pennsylvania for the NextGen Conference 2023
Our Theme: Abiding And the Mission Of God: Blessing the Families of the Earth
Our Story
Investing in the Future
NextGen Leaders was founded in 2003 by Dr. Jim and Sterling O’Neill. It was formed in response to the evident need to allow younger leaders space and time in capacity building for ministry. This is crucial so they could explore areas of mission, leadership, community, need, struggle, weakness suffering and pain.
The NextGen event is a week long leadership conference framed around assisting younger leaders as they develop their spiritual formation and soul care skills, learn to lead from a healthy position and develop missional skills as they serve Jesus and His Gospel in the global theater.
Defining Different With A Simple Mission
Pointing Young Leaders To Christ
We are developing global leaders that have the world in mind. Christ commanded us not only to share our faith, but to take it to the ends of the earth. Our desire is to equip and train leaders that will impact the nations with the Gospel.

Testimonials
What People are Saying
Joe Frejosky
There is such importance in knowing the value of investment, and in continuing to learn how to invest in the lives of others. As individuals, we will all invest differently and all need to be uniquely invested in. I am incredibly grateful to have the opportunity to share a few tips of practical thought, in the area of investment, which the Lord has revealed to me throughout my time in ministry.
Rasool Berry
When we continue to focus on the person of Jesus Christ, we become more aware of the ‘weights and sins’ that we need to lay aside. Once that happens, we can imitate Jesus who also suffered but through constant prayer and communion with the Father endured hardship and finished His race well. By His grace, and through the help of ELC, I feel more equipped to finish this race of faith.
Toni Shena
Me and my wife had been praying about a food bank in my country. And while being at NGLC, God made it clear that we were to open a food bank. The first ever in my country.
We had no funding, no supporting people, no experience in the social field. It was us and another Christian couple from Holland with the same desire.
