Because You’re Loved is an initiative I began in 2010 to facilitate everyday mission.
At the heart of Because You’re Loved is an adventurous fist-in-the-air cry to go beyond attraction to application, resonating with the nearness of the Kingdom of God, refusing to be held back by risk or polarisation. A calling to people young and old to make His Kingdom their primary concern, to mobilise and take ownership for their worlds in the present day.
Because You’re Loved began as a Pais Ireland project and has now been adopted by the Pais Movement around the world and many other organisations as a resource to facilitate ordinary people on everyday mission in their neighbourhoods, workplaces, schools, colleges, and other everyday environments.
In December 2015 Because You’re Loved was presented with “the best youth work resource award” at the Christian Youth Work Awards by Premier Youth Work. Who noted; “This year, one entry in this category stood head and shoulders above the rest. Because You’re Loved is a set of cards and a website which enables young people to spread the love of Jesus wherever they go by leaving random acts of kindness along with the simple cards.
Presenting the award, Jamie Cutteridge from Premier Youth Work reflected that, “Every now and then we come across a resource that looks different, feels different and has something about it.”
