Blythswood, a Scottish-based Christian charity with international impact, is celebrating 60 years of ministry this year.
Founded in Glasgow in 1966, the charity started out as a Bible tract society, reaching out to people with the gospel in the Blythswood region of the city, which was notorious for poverty and prostitution.
Over the past 60 years, the ministry’s reach has extended from Glasgow to the rest of the UK, and today Blythswood is working in Europe, Asia, and Africa. While Blythswood’s focus has shifted from delivering tracts in the 1960s, to opening Christian bookshops and sending out literature in the ‘70s and today, providing practical aid, its gospel heart has remained the same.
