Peace. Hope. Freedom.
We envision a future where every young person is supported in their mental health by a church equipped to offer them peace, hope and freedom.
Our mission is to equip the Church to play its part in supporting young people's mental health.
We are doing this through our strategic programmes:
THE PILLAR MOVEMENT
Building trust with external organisations and creating collaborative opportunities
THE PILLAR FRAMEWORK
Researching, piloting, and refining a framework to enable the Church to respond
THE PILLAR SUPPORT
Resources, training, and events designed to empower the Church in effectively implementing the framework
OUR FRAMEWORK
At The Pillar we are researching, piloting and refining a framework which the Church can use to effectively play their part in supporting young people with their mental health. Our framework is made up of 5 key projects.

OUR PEOPLE
At The Pillar we believe that how we do things is just as important as what we do. Our values are the driving force behind everything we do including the decisions we make, the actions we take and the way that we treat everyone we meet.
Ephesians 5 - ‘Be very careful how you live.’
OUR VALUES
OUR APPROACHES
We want The Pillar to look & feel like a real pillar for everyone who is part of it. Because of this our approach and interventions are based around the purpose and structure of a pillar.
GET INVOLVED
PRAYER
TERMLY NEWSLETTER
From Pillar to Post is our termly newsletter. Subscribing to it is a great way of keeping up to date with everything that is happening at The Pillar and to hear about what you can pray for.
PRAYER GROUP
If you would like to offer regular prayer support, a group meets every Thursday in the prayer room at St Wins Church between 3-6pm, with people dropping in and out as they can. For more information on getting involved with this, please email thepillar@stwins.org. The Pillar Lordshill also have a prayer group, please get in touch with jenni@lordshill.church to find out more!

PROVISION
GIVING
If you feel led we would love you to partner with us financially to support the growth of the project and the impact it will have on young people. This could be through a one-off or regular donation, or you could gift our Pillar Spaces something from our Amazon Wishlists!
SPONSORED CHALLENGES
We would love you to consider an activity to raise some funds and awareness for The Pillar. This could take the form of a sporting event or a challenge, something fun like sitting in a bath of beans, or a non-uniform day if you're a school, or a simple office collection.
Please contact thepillar@stwins.org if this interests you.
