Welcome to Glenrothes Area Christian Youth Trust (GROW), a Trust inspired, created and run for over 20 years by individuals representing the churches in Glenrothes and surrounding area.

I joined GROW as their Schools and Churches Youth Worker in August 2023 and it has certainly been an exciting time and a busy time. I am so thankful to God for the many opportunities He has provided and the doors that have been opened to me.

It has taken time to build up relationships with the schools but I am regularly visiting a number of primary schools in the town and also running Scripture Union Groups in both Auchmuty High School and Glenwood High School.

I have worked alongside Sandra Davie and Chris Beattie in delivering Walk through the Bible to both Carleton Primary School and Pitteuchar East Primary School. This drama based presentation gives pupils the opportunity to learn about the stories of the Bible in an engaging and interactive way. I have also been working with other Chaplains to deliver assemblies in both primary schools and high schools, giving students time to reflect on topics such as respect, kindness and the Christmas and Easter events.

We had a few volunteers and some of the committee of GROW deliver the Christmas Journey to some pupils from Carleton Primary School. This was great fun for all involved and certainly was an engaging way to share the story of Christ’s birth.

I have been a regular visitor to Lendrick Muir as I join local schools during their residential stay or as part of the team for SU Scotland’s Perth, Kinross and Fife residentials as we explore the Bible together over a great weekend. I have also attended training with SU Scotland for events such as Magnitude where I look forward to serving on the prayer team

This is just a wee snap shot of our work. How wonderful it is to see God moving and answering prayer.

Thank you for all your support and faithful prayers.
