We are in the process of developing our youth provision, but here is a flavour of some projects currently running;
We run a number of Youth Drop In Sessions alongside Connswater Community Centre and East Belfast Area Project of the BELB. These sessions are high energy, informal time for young people of all ages to play sports, games and build relationships with all of the staff and leaders from the different organisations.
Times:
Wednesdays, 8PM – 10Pm for 11–14s
Fridays 8.30PM – 11PM 13–19s (15–19s from 9.30 on)
We also run our EBM youth group for 11–18s connected to the church and for those young people who wish to explore the christian faith and life at a deeper level. We currently meet twice per month. On the 1st Sunday of each month at 10am as part of the Church+ programme at EBM as well as the 3rd Sunday of each month from 7PM–9PM. Details will follow of our next gathering, for now, contact us if you have any questions.
Our youth team is busy working throughout the week in a number of local post primary schools, if you’re interested in having the team work with your school then get in touch. We have vast experience in delivering lessons, assemblies, SU sessions, mentoring and activity based programs.
EBM runs a weekly detached youth project through which trained staff and volunteers walk the streets in East Belfast to build relationships with hard to reach young people.
No special events currently planned, check back soon for details of all our summer projects in 2012.
