Please help us shape the next generation of Christian witness - globally

John Stott described this work as “the most strategic work in the church today.”

The work the Lord has give us is concerned with shaping the lives of young Christian adults who, in turn, can shape the world. The fruit of student ministry is seen in the lives of the adults who move from university into working life, and who live, think and speak for Jesus in every area of society.

A vital and neglected arm of the body of Christ is ordinary believers doing ordinary work alongside ordinary unbelievers, who may in fact not know any other Christian as well as their colleagues. The workplace remains the key unreached ‘people group’ of our time.

Please help this emerging generation become the adult followers of Jesus our world needs them to be!

For the glory of God the Father.

“How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”

All the work that we do, and all the work we dream of doing has to be supported by independent funding.
