We are The Mark 10 Mission, the Catholic evangelisation charity for children. Each week we share the Gospel online and in-person helping children and young people to encounter Christ in their classrooms. For the last four and a half years we have provided hundreds of free high-quality videos and changed the way schools lead prayer. We’re delighted and humbled to say that over 65,000 children are watching The Mark 10 Mission videos each week in Catholic primary schools across the UK. Our biggest desire is for children to encounter Jesus, learn the art of prayer and experience the love of God through the Sunday Gospels.
“Within the Diocese of Nottingham the Mark 10 Mission has become an essential weekly offering, used by many of our schools and families, and eagerly awaited by the young people themselves. I hope that through the generosity of supporters this apostolate of transmitting our timeless faith with contemporary media can continue to grow from strength to strength.”

It doesn’t stop there… seeing how children were engaging with The Mark 10 Mission in primary schools led us to think... ‘How can we change the way young people experience the Gospel in secondary schools and inspire them to actively engage with faith?’ Therefore, we’ve spent the past year researching secondary school prayer provision and how we can best engage with this generation, share the Gospel and provide a space for encounter. We really believe Generation Alpha and Gen Z are open to faith, curious about the supernatural and see the flaws and hypocrisy in our secular culture. In September 2024 we launched The Redeemed, a video series like nothing else on offer to secondary school students in the UK. Students are invited to contemplate questions such as how Jesus sees their identity, as well as His response to their anxiety and guidance on friendships. The Redeemed also opens up "big themes” for young people such as why we suffer, how to find lasting happiness and why Jesus died. As we enter 2025, The Redeemed project hopes to bless thousands more young people as we continue tapping into topics relevant in today's society and guiding students as they navigate their faith.
We want to build a thriving future for our Church. Each week, we provide both The Mark 10 Mission and The Redeemed video resources free of charge, as we believe that the Gospel should be accessible to everyone. Our mission relies on the generosity of people like you who donate to our charity! As we enter into 2025, we have BIG plans, pray our mission continues to grow exponentially and even more children and young people encounter Jesus through our videos. Next week, we will be filming more content for The Redeemed, to help young people enter into Lent and Easter like never before. We have plans to launch a new podcast series to help young people pray with scripture. Plus, we’re excited for the Jubilee Year in Rome and already have hopes for an exciting event - watch this space!
GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement, unleashing the power of people and organisations to transform communities and the world. This year, The Mark 10 Mission is participating in Giving Tuesday and we’d love your support to help our work flourish and grow in 2025. We know our mission is forming young disciples of Jesus in schools across the country and is providing vital help to teachers. Our biggest hope and prayer is that this mission will continue for many more years, bless more children and pave the way for our Church to flourish. We want to give children the greatest gift, the gift of faith in Jesus. We want to equip young people with a compass to navigate their faith journey. Without children and young people coming to know Jesus, the Church has no future. We would love for you to join us in this mission and help us equip a generation of new disciples. This Giving Tuesday we ask you to kindly support our work and mission to bring children to Jesus!
