OM will be partnering with Glasgow churches to reach locals and visitors during the Commonwealth Games.
We want to work alongside local churches to serve the city, show the love of Christ, and have meaningful conversations with both residents and international visitors.
The main activities will focus on reaching out to people in public spaces. This includes helping at book tables, distributing Christian tracts, and having one-to-one conversations about faith with locals and international visitors. The team will listen, answer questions, and offer prayer when appropriate.
The team will work alongside local churches and ministries in Glasgow, supporting their outreach during the Commonwealth Games. There may also be prayer walks and participation in church events. Participants who are good at street drama, music, busking, or storytelling are very welcome to use these creative gifts as additional ways to connect with people and share the message of hope and love in Christ.
Team members will receive clear briefing about the spiritual climate of Scotland and will be trained up with some practical skills before and during the outreach. We hope this will help everyone feel prepared to share their faith in a friendly, respectful, and confident way.
Please note: some details of this plan may change depending on local circumstances and numbers of volunteers.
