Helping Churches Disciple Children Beyond Sunday Morning

Children’s faith grows through relationships, Scripture, and consistent discipleship at church and at home. Scripture Union Canada equips churches with practical training, Bible-centred resources, and discipleship support that help children and families grow in faith together.

Nurturing Faith Together

Children do not grow in faith through programs alone. Faith is formed through relationships, Scripture, shared experiences, and a church community that walks alongside families over time.

Scripture Union Canada helps churches strengthen children’s and family discipleship through Bible-centred resources, volunteer training, practical ministry support, and strategies that connect generations with Jesus and His Story.

We believe children’s ministry is strongest when the whole church family takes part in discipling children together.

Training and Workshops

Practical, Bible-centred training that equips leaders, volunteers, and parents to disciple children with confidence.

“Scripture Union has a genuine desire to see the church flourish and children come to know Jesus. Their support is practical, encouraging, and deeply rooted in discipleship.”

Your Children's Ministry Can't Do It Alone!

Children’s ministry matters. Family ministry matters. Intergenerational relationships matter. But they were never meant to compete with one another.

Integrated Ministry helps pastors and ministry leaders rethink how the whole church can work together to nurture resilient, Jesus-centred faith beyond Sunday morning programs.

Sports Ministry

Sports ministry creates natural opportunities for churches to connect with children and families beyond Sunday morning. Through sports, children build confidence, develop teamwork and character, form meaningful relationships, and hear about Jesus in a welcoming environment.

Scripture Union Canada helps churches use sports ministry as a practical pathway for outreach, belonging, evangelism, and discipleship. From training and curriculum to coaching support and ministry strategy, we help churches create spaces where children and families can connect with Jesus and His Story through sport.

Children's Ministry Resources

We believe kids can read the Bible too! Our resources (for churches, families and individuals) help children read, reflect and respond to God’s Word. Whether you’re looking for creative family ministry resources (Messy Church), traditional Sunday School curriculum, or multi-age group lessons, you’ll love the SU resources!

How is AI shaping children’s ministry in Canada?

Artificial Intelligence is rapidly transforming how we learn, communicate, and interact with the world, and that impacts our churches and ministries. As we disciple children in a digital age, we need wisdom, discernment, and thoughtful guidance rooted in Scripture.

A Note From Our Team

As a children’s ministry leader at my own church I’ve used many SU resources over the years. Let me know if you have any questions about our resource, sports ministry or training!
