Why Youth?
All young people have the power and potential to positively influence society.
Whatever their background and situation, with the right care and nurture, young people can rewrite a better future for themselves and others. Whether it’s helping them navigate mental health issues, to process and reconcile broken relationships, work out what they’re called to do or introducing them to faith, investing in this young generation can be so crucial. Through mentoring, evangelism, discipleship and support, it’s our responsibility to guide and encourage them to develop a firm faith in Jesus – the foundation of everything.
How can a young person stay on the path of purity? By living according to your word.
Psalm 119:9
Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.
1 Timothy 4:12
And he said: ‘Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.
Matthew 18:3

Children are meant to understand compassion and comfort because they have received compassion and comfort.
Edith Schaeffer L’Abri
When we are out of sympathy with the young, then I think our work in this world is over.
George MacDonald Writer and Minister
One school in particular had about 8-9 pupils attending their Scripture Union club, and after the event we arrived at the club to a room full of 90 young people – it was a real ‘wow’ moment.
