What’s coming up

Connor’s Big Weekend

Lisburn Cathedral Chapter is working in partnership with Connor Youth and Children’s Development Officers Christina Baillie and Jill Hamilton to host a weekend of events for children, youth, and children’s and youth leaders.

Connor’s Big Weekend will take place on November 16 and 17 in St Patrick’s Parish, Ballymena. Lisburn Cathedral Chapter and the Church of Ireland Orphans and Children’s Society are jointly funding the project. 

Events will be led by Bob Hartman along with the band Inspire, who are coming over from England, and the Northern Ireland-based Play It By Ear drama group.

On the Saturday – Connor’s Big Family Fiesta – there will be a Children’s Praise Concert with drama, storytelling, and worship along with a café and workshop.  This event is open to children and is also suitable for leaders and children’s groups.

On the Sunday – Snapshot Sunday – there will be a practical training session for children’s and youth leaders led by Bob Hartman, Inspire, Play It by Ear, Catherine Little and Stu Bothwell.  This training is not to be missed if you work with children or young people in your church.
