Listen: Scripture Union's Ed Sowden talks with Ben McEachen about The Hope Project

Doing the HSC is tough at the best times. But, these are not the best of times.

The pandemic has put a dampener on all our lives but some of us have had it harder than others.

HSC students comprise one group that has had stress, uncertainty and pressure amplified by COVID-19 outbreaks and restrictions.

Scripture Union’s The Hope Project wants to deliver support to our school leavers by inviting us all to pray for a specific student.

Ed Sowden is a youth pastor at Bathurst and heads up the Hope Project. He spoke with Hope Afternoons about why our HSC students need such spiritual empowerment and how we can get involved.
