Inspiring New England’s youth and renewing their well-being through the healing power of the arts and redemptive love of Christ.
"The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
Philippians 4:5-7
About Breathe Life New England
Through artistic skill development and intentional mentorship, our mission is to equip the next generation to boldly carry the gospel into every space they enter. Together, we are building culture and community through creatives who live their faith out loud.​
Walk confidently in what God has called you to.
The Vision: A Generation Set Apart
We believe the next generation was never meant to blend in. At Breathe Life New England, we are igniting a movement of young creators from ages 5 to 17, who are set apart by their craft and anchored in the uncompromising truth of the Gospel. Our mission is to reach New England's youth and renew their well-being by combining the healing nature of the arts with the redemptive power of Christ. Our vision is to flip the spiritual landscape of the Northeast on its head, transforming one of the "least churched" regions into a Gospel-centric powerhouse pioneered by the passion and drive of our youth.
​
Through intentional mentorship and artistic mastery, we provide a sanctuary where students grow in confidence and encounter the transforming love of Jesus. To ensure every child can answer this calling, we plan to offer:
​
-
Diverse Creative Disciplines: High-quality instruction in fine arts, dance, music, and more, helping students master the crafts they love.
-
Holistic Investment: Deep, intentional mentorship that develops character and spiritual identity alongside technical skill.
-
Accessible Excellence: A "Variable Fee" model, supported by community sponsors, ensuring financial barriers never stand in the way of a child’s purpose.​​
The REACH Tour: Our Mission in Motion
The journey begins with our 1st Annual Breathe Life Benefit. This year, we’re connecting with our community through our very first REACH Tour. This tour will run through the 26-27 school year. Each month, our Breathe Life Troop, comprised of talented artists in a variety of disciplines, will visit 1 church and 1 school space. In addition to this tour, this 26-27 school year, we will be offering our FREE pilot classes at a local community space (location TBD). Both of these are designed to spark awareness and invite the community into our mission to Reach, Renew, and Redeem:
​
-
REACH: We reach out to the youth in our community through the power of art, reflecting how God reaches out to us.
-
RENEW: Through skill development and mentorship, students see how Christ renews our story, our hope, and our future.
-
REDEEM: We empower students to live as they were created—redeemed by Christ to lead a purposeful life, both now and eternally.
Every dollar raised during this year’s Breathe Life Benefit fuels Phase 1 of Breathe Life New England’s Youth Arts Academy. We aren't just teaching the arts; we are equipping a generation to lead, believe boldly, and become the catalysts for a New England renewed.
Reach
To reach is to stretch out an arm to grasp something/someone, the extent of influence.
​
“From one man He made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and He marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands. God did this so that they would seek Him and perhaps reach out for Him and find Him, though He is not far from any one of us.”
Acts 17:26-27
Renew
To renew is to revive, create a new form, to be made new, in better condition.
​
“Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.”
​
Isaiah 40:30-31
Redeem
To redeem is to save someone from debt and harm, to pay the price for liberation, to make a sacrifice to acquire something that was lost, and acquire freedom from what was owed.
​
“Even so, we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world. But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law; that we might receive the adoption as sons. And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, “Abba, Father!” Therefore you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.”
​
Galatians 4:3-7
“What makes creativity more extraordinary is its inclusivity; everyone can engage in some form of creative expression, regardless of their artistic skill level. This inclusivity makes art an accessible and valuable tool for individuals seeking to improve their well-being.” - Salience Health
