Launch of Connor Takes the Castle 2019

Monday April 15th 2019

Having fun at Connor Takes the Castle 2018.

Applications are open for the annual Connor youth diocesan discipleship weekend, Connor Takes the Castle, with the addition of a new VIP scheme!

The first young person to sign up from a parish will gain VIP status, including a free exclusive T-Shirt and lots of perks across the weekend. Applications can be completed HERE.

Diocesan Youth Officer Christina Baillie said: “Connor Youth Council would love to see youth leaders bring groups of young people from parishes across the diocese to join them for a fully planned weekend, taking place in Castlewellan Castle from Friday September 6 to Sunday September 8. The weekend is for all young people aged 11-18 to attend with their leaders.

“The Youth Council has put together a programme which will be a great fit for youth groups in parishes, with sessions led by The Big House; worship; small group time as well as big activities including Soft Arrow Combat and Salt Factory Sports for the Saturday afternoon slot.”

The cost of the weekend is £50 for the early bird rate, if booked before July 2, and £60 after that date.
