Growing in confidence: walking alongside young evangelists through Amplify 

Time to ask questions, opportunities to learn and encouragement from someone willing to listen can all help a young person grow in confidence as they explore sharing their faith.

Through involvement in the Amplify programme, Rural Missions staff have had the opportunity to walk alongside young evangelists during a significant period of learning and development.

One part of our involvement was accompanying a cohort of ten young evangelists across the year, including two residential weekends.

Our worker saw young people engage openly with mission and evangelism, heard their questions and observed their enthusiasm and confidence develop over the course of the programme.

Sustained involvement creates opportunities to get to know people as they learn, ask questions and consider their next steps. It allows encouragement to continue beyond a single event.

Rural Missions contributes as part of the wider Amplify programme. We value the opportunity to work alongside others who are investing in young people and helping them consider how they can live and share their faith.

The story also reminds us that supporting mission involves people as well as projects. A young person’s questions and emerging gifts deserve attention, encouragement and space to develop.

There is more to discover about where each person’s journey will lead. We value the opportunity to support them along the way.

It’s only with your support that we can continue contributing staff time to work like this. Your gift helps us encourage people exploring mission and sharing the hope of Jesus.
