Scripture Union

Who we are

Scripture Union (England and Wales) is a Christian charity that is part of a worldwide movement working with churches in more than 140 countries. We provide resources to fulfil our mission to share the good news about Jesus Christ with children, young people, adults and families, and to encourage them to develop spiritually through the Bible and prayer. We have a network of volunteers, staff, associates and affiliates who run holidays, missions, church-based events and work with schools to support assemblies, RE curriculum, and Christian groups. We offer varied short-term overseas mission programmes for volunteers of all ages. We publish a wide range of highly-regarded resources for use in churches, schools and the community, and we support users through quality training programmes.

Our culture and values

Our vision

We want to see a new generation of children and young people who have a vibrant, personal faith in Jesus. 

Our mission

We create opportunities for children and young people to explore the Bible, respond to Jesus and grow in faith. 

Through their journey of faith, we want children and young people to discover who Jesus is, and the difference he can make to their life, for themselves. 

Our priority

Those who don't yet know him!

95% of all under 18s in England and Wales don't go to church BUT many of them are open to exploring faith! 

It's from this statistic that we've developed the Revealing Jesus mission framework that will not only help your church to engage with 'the 95', but will also provide you with the support and resources you need to continue to walk alongside them as they find and grow in faith.
