ROCK Street Chaplains, Dundee

ROCK Street Chaplains, Dundee R.O.C.K. Street, Club, and Festival Chaplains work at night on the streets of Dundee city centre. We exist to CARE: Chat, Assist, Reassure, Encourage

Our purpose is to share the Gospel with clubbers and workers and help create a safer Dundee city centre. (Reaching Out to make Christ Known) Street Chaplains has worked on the streets of Dundee since 2000 and have gradually become an integral part of the city’s night time economy; assisting in the safety of the city and in the physical and spiritual care of its people. Over the last two decades th

e ministry has expanded into local clubs and festivals – including other towns – each comprised of a dedicated group of volunteers from the local churches and co-ordinated by founder Andrew Burns BEM. Since 2017, Street Chaplains has established itself in Northern Ireland in the towns of Lurgan, Co Armagh and Newcastle, Co Down. Dundee Street Chaplains operates every Friday and Saturday night from 10:45pm until late. We hand out leaflets and lollies, provide practical support for clubbers, workers, and beggars. We are also actively involved in DUNCAN (Dundee Co-ordinated Anticrime Network) and the Safe Zone Bus, and act as a reassuring presence for the vulnerable. If you spot us say ‘hello’. We'd love to meet you! As our ministry continues to grow and change, we are always looking for more volunteers! If you’re interested or would like more info on what being a street chaplain involves, then please get in touch. Learn more about us on our website: dundeechaplains.org.uk/about-us

Volunteers for Dundee Dance Event

On Sunday 4th May, Dundee will host the UK's biggest multi-venue dance music event. It will be a great opportunity to reach thousands of young people.

We are hoping to go around the city from 3pm, then go to church at 6:30pm and then go out again afterwards. Andy Burns will be joining us. If you can help for any part of the day, we'd love to have as many red coats on the street as possible.

𝑩𝒍𝒖𝒓𝒃:
"Andrew Burns BEM began his Christian ministry as a Child Evangelist with CEF Ireland before launching Scotland’s first ‘Street Chaplains’ in Dundee in 2000. ROCK Street Chaplains now operates in several towns across Scotland and Northern Ireland, sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ in and around nightclubs. After four decades in Christian ministry, Andy shares for the first time the full story of how God has put ‘feet on the street’ to enable Street Chaplains to develop. With an Ulster-Scots flavour, this book gives a personal, frank, and sometimes humorous account of the joys and challenges of nightclub outreach across these two lands, offering along the way biblical reflection on street evangelism in an ever-changing world. It is a story of perseverance, faithfulness, and common sense which should stir every Christian to ‘Reach Out to make Christ Known’."
