Many teenagers are lonely, unhappy and struggling to find a sense of purpose. In a world driven by social media and hype, they live on shifting sands.

Thanks to your support, in the coming weeks thousands of children will discover the life-changing message of hope behind the Nativity story through the gift of our new Christmas book, God Became Like Me?. 

It’s thanks to your generous donations that we can organise weekend residential camps like SOLID, offering all kinds of adventure activities and opportunities to explore faith and worship Jesus.

The Bible is of course essential to spiritual growth. But how do you help children and young people who aren’t in church to engage with it?

What do you do if you are a member of a church that has no contact with young people in your community? What do you do if the other churches in the village are in the same position? Where on earth do you even start?

When you’re looking to share your faith with young people who aren’t part of a church, you have to go where they are, and find some common ground to start building on.

At Scripture Union we are passionate about children exploring the Bible and growing in faith. That’s why the Diary of a Disciple Fylde Coast Project got me excited!   

James Cook first came on Scripture Union holiday The Maze six years ago. Read his life-changing story…

Our work at Lifepath was to “Spread the knowledge of God” to all those children who attended, to the teachers, all adults they brought with them and maybe even to each other, as we served God during the week.
