BUILDING FOR THE FUTURE.
“For the past eight years, Oriel Ministries has seen God move in incredible ways, with over 60,000 young people coming through our projects and countless lives impacted along the way. As our vision continues to grow, we believe God is leading us into an exciting new season — one that will allow us to dream bigger, reach further, and create even more opportunities to share the love and hope of Jesus with young people, families, and our wider community. This is not an ending, but a new beginning, and over the coming weeks, we’ll be sharing more about what’s next for Oriel Ministries.

Your Questions, Answered
-
We are currently exploring the process of moving to a new building that better supports the needs of our work, our team, and the young people and communities we serve.
We will share clear updates as plans develop.
As part of this transition, The Loft venue will be closing on 24th August.
-
As the terms and practical use of our current building have evolved, this has increasingly impacted both our access to key areas and the overall cost of operating from the space.
As a result, continuing in the building is no longer sustainable in a way that allows us to operate effectively or maintain the standard of delivery we are committed to.
We are incredibly grateful for the time we’ve had in this building and all that has taken place here.

Our mission remains the same, and much of our work will continue as normal.
Our schools work and Pulse Bus will continue throughout this transition, and we remain fully committed to serving young people, families, and communities across the region.
Some venue-based projects will look different during this time. With The Loft closing on 24th August, Shake Shop will be adapting, and we are already working on how this will continue in the next season.
We will be personally contacting all regular Shake Shop attendees and families with clear updates and next steps.
Our priority is to ensure continuity for the young people we serve, even as the setting changes.
