Chosen for churches | World Vision UK

I Choose You is a powerful message of God's love

Chosen puts our Christian calling - to love our neighbour - right at the heart of churches' ministry and mission. And it'll bring social justice alive in your church.

Chosen turns Child Sponsorship on its head – now children are empowered to choose their own sponsor, communities are working together, churches are growing, hope is being restored, people are coming to know Jesus, and futures are being ensured.

You and your church can be a part of it.

We would love to talk to you about bringing Chosen to your church or Christian conference. Please call us today on 01908 84 10 10 or email us at churches@worldvision.org.uk

Bring Chosen to your church

We are here to help you share Chosen with your church and congregation.

Our team - experienced church leaders and speakers - have personally seen Chosen in action and can share the invitation to Be Chosen with your church family.

Congregation members have their photos taken and then, at a special choosing party, children in a community in rural Uganda will be invited to choose your church members as their sponsors – uniting your church community with theirs on an exciting and life-changing journey.

The UK's first Chosen Church

Dave Richards

Minister at St Pauls and St Georges Church in Edinburgh, first UK Chosen church

Dave's church was the first in the UK to run a Chosen event. He said, "Knowing that through being Chosen we have been part of empowering children to learn that they are loved and valued has transformed our congregation. We’re so excited to see what happens now these children are empowered with choices that can create change in their families and communities. My encouragement to any church leaders who are considering taking part in Chosen is this: Not only will God bring about change in the community that you help to sponsor, but God will change you, and God will change your church."
