Project
The Baptist Youth children's mission project aims to raise awareness of and money for, a particular mission endeavour among the children and young people of the Baptist Association. Every year around 35 Baptist Sunday Schools take part in the project and the feedback is that this is a valuable resource to enthuse children about missions and to help them develop a heart for evangelism and also cheerful giving from an early age.
The project for 2010 is titled "Road Trip Peru." The project will take children on a road trip around Southern Peru to learn about the various Baptist Missions missonaries and ministries. If you have never taken part in the project can I encourage you to give it a go – it’s a great resource to get children excited about mission!! Click here to see a promotional flyer.

The project for 2009 was Project North Africa. £4,350 was raised for the kitting out and decorating of therapy centre's for children with physical disabilities across North Africa. The exciting side to the project is that the majority of North Africa is a Muslim culture. So this project had the added dimension of introducing children to Islam and the encouraging children to see the need to reach out with love and respect to our muslim neighbours and to show them who Jesus is and why he came. Thanks to all who took part!!
