"Reaching lads for Jesus Christ, engaging them in effective Christian living"
Urban Saints Guildford (USG) is an active and vibrant youth group for boys in Years 5 - 13. Through various games, activities, outings, and camps, we aim to have fun and let “lads be lads” whilst exploring how Jesus and the bible are relevant to us today.
At Urban Saints Guildford we are passionate about working with young people, helping them to realise their God-given potential as they journey to adulthood. Underpinning all our work is the strong belief that the Christian faith works today and that Jesus Christ was speaking the truth when He said that He offers the very best, most fulfilling life. To this end …
Our passion is to see lads in Guildford become Christians, who can thrive independently of Urban Saints Guildford and who are committed to spreading the gospel of Jesus Christ.
We do this by … Reaching Lads for Jesus Christ, Engaging them in Effective Christian Living.
Throughout our work, Urban Saints Guildford endeavours to maintain our values…
…Riotous Fun, Adventurous Faith, Genuine Friendships and Life in all its Fullness
