Global Connections

Scripture Union (SU) operates in 120 countries, in the regions of Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe, the Former Soviet Republics and the Pacific. In some countries there are more than one movement such as Switzerland (French speaking and German speaking), or Australia (where each state has a separate movement.) Each movement has a strong commitment to expressing the aims of SU in ways appropriate to each context. As the world becomes increasingly globally connected, we have opportunities for mutual support, sharing, and partnership within Scripture Union and with other agencies. In 2012, SU around the world embarked on a global initiative, ‘Living Hope’, to define global priorities for ministry and leadership development. In order to fulfil this and to be better positioned to operate in a globalised setting, major structural changes were agreed upon, the first since 1960. Regions were dissolved and replaced by Community Groups and a Global Board.

​

Today, SU remains committed to working with churches to make God’s Good News known to children, young people and families and to helping people of all ages meet God through the Bible and prayer. SU Singapore is part of the Scripture Union family in Asia. We are a companion country mentoring SU entities in Cambodia, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam (HCMC). There are now many varieties of ministry around the world. Our vision is that, as people of all ages come to faith in Christ, they will then be the means of transformation in their communities, the nations, and the world.
