The Vision

At the Youth Gathering, we have a vision to "make spaces for young people to thrive in the Name of Jesus". We have four spaces, for all kids, youth and young adults from the ages of 5-25 years old.

Spaces to Seek: "Welcoming all young people from all backgrounds and helping them figure out who they are in Jesus!"

Spaces to be Shaped: "Giving young people space to worship, listen to what God is saying to them and teaching Biblically to seek first the Kingdom of God!"

Spaces to Share: "Empowering young people to go into their friends, family and share the love of God and speaking truth into the lives of people around them."

Spaces to Serve: "Equipping young people in their abilities and allowing them to serve others in church and community using the gifts that God has given them."

YOUTH CLUB

YOUTH CLUB (formally known as 'Drop in' is a space where all young people from the age of 9-17. Each week we run a 'CLUB' styled programme with games, music, skits and opportunities to win prizes and short talk. We'll end each week with games, football and lots of food!!

Every Friday we'll run from 7-8.30pm.

Sunday Youth Nights

This is the Youth Expression of The Gathering Belfast! Each weekend we will gather together, play games, create space for worship/songs & teaching from the Bible!

Fortnightly we'll break into smaller groups and study God's word together!

Our aim is to echo the early church in Acts 2 "they devoted themselves to each other, teaching of Jesus & fellowship."

Youth Hangouts

This is our Sunday Morning space for young people ages 11-17 years old. Each week we'll have breakfast together, catch up & open up the Bible together! Breakfast is usually ready at 10:45am and we usually finish at 11:45am. Young people who attend are welcome to attend church under parental supervision.

Alpha Youth

Alpha Youth is a space where young people from the ages of 10-17 years old can ask questions about Faith & Life in Jesus. Each week we'll have games, unpack a particular topic & discuess in smaller groups. This runs seasonally each year. This runs seasonally, if interested get in touch!

Ignite Summer Scheme

Ignite is our Annual Summer Scheme we hold as part of ending our year of Youth Drop in. It's a 4 day long Youth Drop in where each evening we'll look at a specific theme, usually surrounded with messy games & fun. For ages 9-17 years old.
