Hi, my name is Jordan, and I am the Mission Enabler for Hampshire, Surrey, and West Sussex. I joined SU in late 2024, having previously been a youth worker and Faith Guide in a local church for the last seven years. I am currently living in Fareham, which is a brilliant location to support the great amount of outreach and mission to children and young people happening in the region, especially in some of the neighbouring cities!

I have a great passion for helping create opportunities for children and young people to encounter Jesus and to grow in faith that will change their lives as they experience the joy of his love and grace. I was a member of the 95 as a teenager, having not been brought up or exposed to church before that point, and so I see the huge importance of reaching out to young people where they are. My prayer and hope in this role are to be able to support and encourage all those seeking to do this in their own contexts and to build upon what is currently happening, as well as seeing any spaces and new opportunities where Jesus can be shared more effectively for the children in that area. 

With 95% of children and young people not in church, my ministry is becoming increasingly vital. Will you stand with me, helping to ensure the future impact of the good news of Jesus on the lives of the children and young people who don’t go to church.  Your gift really does make a difference. Can I ask you to prayerfully consider if God is calling you to give, partnering with us financially?

Any support you can give will help ensure this ministry to 'the 95' can continue.  We promise to keep you informed with our regular newsletters, which you can choose to receive by post or email.

Thank you so much for reading this.
