The Templepatrick team – Denise, Carole, Nicole, Hannah, Jeremy, Emma and Anna.
The Rev Jeremy Mould, rector of Templepatrick, led a team of seven including four young people on a mission trip to the city of Elbasan in the centre of Albania at the request of A2B Albania. There, they ran a Bible Holiday Club.
Joining Jeremy in Albania from July 16-25 were Emma Boyce, Anna, Glover, Carole Williamson and Denise Martin, all from Templepatrick, Hannah Collins from Central Presbyterian, and Nicole Rea from Mossley Parish.
A2B Albania (www.a2balbania.org) runs two children’s day care centres, an elderly day care centre, a House of Opportunity for three young men, and a Family Link project, supporting and feeding impoverished families.
The team ran a six-day Bible Holiday Club for 40+ children aged 5–16, visited the House of Opportunity, and two churches where they took part in the services. They also visited some of the Family Link families in Elbasan and in the mountains to see how A2B supports them.
We will have a full report of the team’s experience in Albania in the autumn issue of Connor Connections.
