The young people and their leaders met from 7.30-9pm for team time, getting to know each other and look to the days ahead.

Litter picking, prayer walking and leaflet distribution on Monday afternoon.

Monday afternoon’s activity focused on outreach, with the young people delivering leaflets and prayer walking in local housing developments as well as doing a litter lift.

On Tuesday afternoon, they will take part in a practical activity, while on Wednesday they will help run Derryvolgie Parish’s Family Fun Day and Barbecue.

Monday evening will include dinner, a debrief and a drop-in run by Youth Initiatives; there will be dinner and a debrief on Tuesday evening, and following the big family event on Wednesday, it will be time for a final debrief before home.

Streetreach provides a space to disciple young people in Connor Diocese by offering a safe environment to develop in mission and evangelism, the opportunity to raise up and develop young leaders for mission and ministry, and a catalyst within parish communities in the diocese to facilitate long-term mission development.
