United Beach Missions (UBM) holds a variety of outreach events every summer.

Among them, is a ‘Smugglers Trail’ in Benllech, Anglesey.

Through rain, sunshine and 35,000 steps, over 100 supporters of London City Mission took to the streets of central London to take part in the Big London Walk.

This 12-mile sponsored walk, which included a city tour with Christian Heritage London, aimed to raise much-needed funds and awareness for the one in two people in London who don’t know a Christian to share the gospel with them, invite them to church or read the Bible with.

The curtain has come down for good on Urban Saints national summer camps, which have been running across several sites across the UK and Ireland for many decades – though local and regional ones will continue.

Previously more widely known as Crusaders, Urban Saints summer camps for children and young people up to 18 have been run by volunteers since the early 1900s. This year’s camps ran through summer from the very first summer weekend. Interim CEO Richard Giles said : ‘We’re grateful for their servant heart and passion.’

Record numbers of children and young people attended this year’s Keswick Convention, the organisers say.

Keswick Ministries has revealed that of the 10,000 attendees this summer, 2,500 were youngsters and teenagers.

Keswick Ministries has announced the appointment of Mark Ellis as its new Ministry Director, effective from September 2023. He follows James Robson, incoming Principal of Oak Hill Theological College.

Mark has wide experience in Christian leadership, including overseas mission work with OMF, leading UCCF’s team in Scotland and as Director of Christian Unions Ireland, pastoring a flourishing church plant in Dundee, and most recently as part of the leadership team at Christ Church Newcastle.
