Scripture Union of Peru
Located in: Lima, Peru
Founded in Peru in 1927, Scripture Union is part of an international evangelical movement that works with local churches to help children, youth and families know Christ through his Word. Scripture Union aims to encourage people of all ages to encounter God daily through the Bible and prayer, that they may know our Lord Jesus Christ personally, grow in Christian maturity, and become faithful members of the church and servants of a world in need.
Scripture Union of Peru works in five areas:
- Bible Ministry - Encourage people to know God through his Word.
- High School and Camping Ministries - A Christian values program where hundreds of volunteers and a motivated team bring the gospel to hundreds of state high schools. This is complemented by a summer youth camp.

- Medical Ministry - Assisting the poorest of the poor through medical boats that travel the Amazon and its tributaries.
