Scripture Union Scotland News And Updates
As we are in the midst of an Easter programme full of events, we are reminded that it is all possible through the love and grace of God. We are so thankful that our teams will be able to show God’s love to young people this Easter, for the provision of our centres and campsites, and for the financial and prayer support of our dedicated supporters. Our prayer over the coming weeks is that our young people will discover the living hope that is found in Jesus.

1 Peter 1:3 (NIV)
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.
