The creative arts tour from ALOVE UK, the youth wing of The Salvation Army, is back on the road this summer!

With SPIRE this year's theme, hundreds of young people attending Salvation Army summer schools across the country will be invited to take part in the day-long interactive programme of contemporary arts, drama, prayer and Bible teaching.

The ALOVE UK team are joined by Canadian rapper Manafest and his wife Mel, a model and photographer who will be leading some seminars focusing on identity.

The inspiration for the SPIRE tour is found in the Biblical account of Esther, who God used to save her people and in doing so reveal just how powerful he is and just how much he can do through us when we follow him.

SPIRE will also feature a vocation seminar to help young people discover what God wants for them and an identity seminar to help people find out who they are in Christ.

We hope and pray this summer's tour will help to reach many people and will help inspire them to get excited about the possibility of dreaming big dreams!
