What’s coming up

Connor Takes the Castle 2020 launched

Connor Youth Council is planning the annual Diocesan Youth Weekend scheduled for September 4-6 in Castlewellan Castle.

The weekend is open to all young people aged 11 and up to attend, along with their parish group. Simon Henry from CIYD will be speaking, and there will be a host of exciting activities including the infamous Connor’s Got Talent!

Christina Baillie, Diocesan Youth Officer said: “We have loved seeing new groups attend this weekend as it provides a great opportunity for friendships to be made between those from different parishes.

“The weekend is a highlight of my year, and it’s a joy seeing the young people share in exploring faith together. For the second year, we have our VIP access for the first young person from each parish to apply, which will provide them with some exclusive goodies and special treats throughout the weekend.”

The weekend costs £50 if booked before Friday June 26. After this date, it is £60 per person.

No money will be requested when completing the application, and updates about the event under the current circumstances will be issued to group leaders regularly.

Young people and leaders can apply HERE.
