Chaplaincy at Court Field
Please continue to pray for Chloe and the work she is doing at Court Field School.
Bible Study
Please pray for our bible studies groups that meet every Wednesday. Our new group begins this month and we are very expectant for what the Lord is going to do as we lean in and seek him together.
Pyrland School
Please pray for Pyrland School as they continue to navigate a difficult season. Some of you may already be aware, but Pyrland School sits within the bottom 3% for deprivation in the country. Their funding and support is low and the need is extremely high. If you feel you could support the school in any way, please do get in touch.
My Life Sessions
We have recently launched something called 'My Life'. My life is a selection of courses designed to teach and inspire young people who are at risk of making unhealthy life choices, offending or are struggling with traditional education. These courses carry an OCR accreditation and so it enables the young people to work towards further education. Please pray that as we run these sessions, the young people are engaged, inspired and determined to see change in their lives.
Asylum Seekers
Please pray for the Asylum seeker young people and families that we work with. Some of these families have experienced such colossal trauma but are so open the gospel.
Youth violence
Please stand with us in prayer over the issue of youth violence and knife crime. We are seeing a huge increase in young people carrying knives and youth violence is on the rise.
Somerset's knife crime rates are now amongst the highest in England and sexual assault is still the highest reported crime in Taunton. As the church, we need to stand together and prayerfully wage war on this. These are not just statistics to us, they are children that we know and love and the effect of these things on some of their lives is devastating.
Team
Please pray for wisdom as we look to grow our team of staff and volunteers. We are so aware of the uniqueness of what Taunton Youth for Christ does and finding people with the right heart and skill set for this isn't always easy.
Youth Hub finance
Please pray with us as we look at funding this vision. We will be looking for grants to support this but please share this with anyone you feel would like to partner with us in this vision.
