The Eastern Region is one of the branches of Scripture Union Uganda (SU Uganda). SU Uganda operates through various regional branches across the country, and the Eastern Region branch plays a significant role in advancing the organization’s mission in that particular area.

Located in the eastern part of Uganda, the Eastern Region is known for its diverse communities, vibrant culture, and beautiful landscapes. It encompasses several districts, including Mbale, Soroti, and Tororo, among others.

The region is dedicated to creating opportunities for young people to encounter God, grow in faith, and live out biblical values. The branch organizes various programs and activities designed to meet the spiritual, social, and emotional needs of the youth in the region.

One of the key initiatives of the Eastern Region branch is the establishment and support of SU school clubs in different educational institutions. These clubs serve as platforms for young people to gather, study the Bible, and engage in discussions about faith and life. The SU school clubs provide a safe and supportive environment where students can explore their beliefs, ask questions, and develop their relationship with God.

In addition to school clubs, the Eastern Region branch organizes camps, retreats, conferences, and rallies that bring together young people from various schools and churches. These events provide opportunities for fellowship, worship, and learning. They also offer platforms for young people to discover and utilize their talents in music, drama, sports, and other creative expressions.

The Eastern Region branch of SU Uganda also prioritizes leadership development among young people. They offer training programs, mentorship, and discipleship opportunities to equip and empower emerging leaders. Through these initiatives, the branch aims to raise a generation of young people who will become agents of positive change in their communities and beyond.

Furthermore, the Eastern Region branch actively collaborates with churches, schools, and other youth-focused organizations to amplify their impact and reach more young people with the message of hope and transformation found in the Bible. By fostering partnerships and engaging in community outreach programs, SU Uganda seeks to make a lasting difference in the lives of young people in the Eastern Region.
