Stirling is known as "Scotland's Heart" due to its physical location and historical significance in the past. It is reported that 70% of Scotland's population lives within one hour of the city and this creates a diverse people group, culture, tourism trade and experience. Stirling Street Pastors want to see "Scotland's Heart" gain an understanding of God's Heart for the city and its people. As Christian volunteers we are motivated by the Bible and our faith to try to both proactively and reactively seek the welfare of our city - putting the emphasis firmly on the individual in need at the time. Street Pastors is not about preaching, judging or telling people how to live their lives. Instead, we freely hand out personal safety equipment, give emotional care and physical help to hundreds of people using the city centre every month.
Our work formally began on the 27th March 2009 and Stirling Street Pastors continues to grow - both on the streets in the frontline work we do, as well as strategically as we build relationships with other organisations and groups within the city.
Are you interested in supporting our work? We are constantly looking to increase our volunteer numbers, financial support and prayer base to further the work we do. If you are interested in assisting us in any of those ways or if you wish to make a general enquiry then please contact our coordinator using the office details at the left side of this page.
