Introducing Prayer Spaces

As part of our mission to help young people meet God, Scripture Union KZN has introduced Prayer Spaces.

These creative and interactive environments set up in schools that invite learners to pause, reflect, and connect with God in a personal way. These voluntary spaces allow students to explore themes like faith, identity, and emotions through guided prayer activities.

Each station is thoughtfully designed to meet young people where they are, offering a gentle opportunity for engagement, regardless of their background.

Renai Padayachee, one of our PMB Mission Partners, shared:“We often underestimate the challenges young people face, simply because we compare their responsibilities to our own. But witnessing how they embraced the opportunity to pause, reflect, and express themselves through Prayer Spaces made me realise just how deep the need is for spaces like these in our communities. These moments are more than activities — they are opportunities for healing, for being heard, and for encountering God in a real and personal way.”
