The
Farside Celebrations have been running on a bi-monthly basis for
over ten years now, with numbers growing from around a hundred
young people from a handful of churches at our first event, to
anywhere up to four times as many young people from over thirty
different churches now attending each event.
[AIMS]
Through the Celebrations we aim to:
// Support young people in their individuals gifts, by involving
them in the band, the drama or dance groups, in speaking, or in
whatever other areas we can support them in.
// Encourage people from churches where there are few young
people, by showing them they aren’t the only young Christians
in the area!
// Invite young people to get involved in practical projects
and share their faith in ways which are meaningful and relevant
to their setting.
// Inspire young people to grow in their understanding of
a different aspect of life, faith and God at each different event.
// Strengthen young people’s faith, and demonstrate
that it is something that is both exciting and challenging to
be part of.
// Equip young people for their everyday lives as Christians.
[GET
