The Trust
Our Vision
The Trust exists to be a resource to the Chester Schools and to
work with others in establishing, maintaining and developing an
effective Christian presence there.
Our vision is:
• To communicate to each young person in a Chester school
the message of the Gospel in a way that they understand, so they
can see the relevance of a personal relationship with Jesus and
make their informed decision as to following Him.
We aim to achieve this by:
• Building up and maintaining genuine relationship between
young people and Christians
• Being a positive, credible, Christian influence into the
lives of young people
• The motivation, organisation and inspiration of local people
to actively support their local schools
• Calling Chester Churches to pray for the outreach to their
local schools
