Scheme Sunday

On the first Sunday in November every year, we set aside a day to celebrate what our great God has done in local churches in schemes across Scotland.

Join us on 5th November 2023 in celebrating Scheme Sunday!

Why Scheme Sunday?

On 5th November 2012, we launched as a ministry of Niddrie Community Church with the mission of planting and revitalising healthy gospel churches in the 20 poorest areas of Scotland – 20schemes was born!

In the past 11 years we have seen much growth – churches planted or revitalised, discipleship and training ministries started and grown, but most importantly, countless lives transformed by the gospel of Jesus Christ in the local churches that are working tirelessly to make Him known.

We have a lot to thank God for in the past 11 years of 20schemes, but we also thank you, our supporters, for your prayerful, financial & physical help to bring gospel light to the schemes of Scotland – we truly are partners in this ministry!

This Scheme Sunday would you and your church join with us to pray in thanks for what God has done, is doing and will do through the ministry of 20schemes?


What God has been doing through 20schemes in 2023…

Below are some stories of how God is at work in the schemes of Scotland. As we move closer to Scheme Sunday in November we will add more stories for you to be encouraged and share.


Celebrate Scheme Sunday with us on 5th November!

On Sunday 5th November we will join together with partner churches across Scotland & the world to praise and thank God that he is growing his kingdom in the schemes of Scotland, and to pray for new opportunities to share the gospel.
