We are delighted to announce the appointment of Revd Dr Mark Griffiths as our new Director of Mission Resources. He joins the Scripture Union staff team at the end of June.
Mark is coming on board to lead our new Mission Resources department, and help us deliver an even greater range of resources to equip churches in Revealing Jesus to children and young people.
Mark lives in Cardiff with his wife Rhian, and joins us fresh from being the Dean For Discipleship at St Padarn's Institute, the training arm of the Church in Wales.
'I am really excited to be joining the SU team! Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of serving in a variety of roles – from theological college tutor and church leader to children & youth pastor and community evangelist. I’ve also led New Wine’s children and family ministry for over a decade, spoken at national and international gatherings on children and families, and authored a range of books on evangelism to young people and children. My PhD is in Child Evangelism.
For the past five years, I’ve had the honour of serving on the Scripture Union Council and Board, which has given me a front-row seat to the incredible work SU is doing. So, when the opportunity came to join this amazing team, I didn’t hesitate!'

Our National Director, Dave Newton adds, 'I can't wait for Mark to get started. His vast experience, coupled with his passion for the gospel and sheer enthusiasm for this work is going to help us forge forward in this next season. I am already starting to imagine the growing number of churches we can envision and equip with first-class resources! Please join me in praying for Mark as he takes up this important role at the end of June.
