Chai Brady
Parish GIFT Volunteer Team WMOF 2018
Living Youth celebrated their Parish GIFT programme (Growing In Faith Together) with two celebration days.
One was held in Antrim parish for parishes in the north of the diocese and one in Drumboe and Carryduff parish for parishes in the south of the diocese.
More than 120 children aged 11-14 and their leaders attended each of the days.
The theme was based on the upcoming World Meeting of Families this August, together they watched the WMOF animations, learnt some new hymns and action songs, played parachute games, participated in a drumming circle, took part in team games and talked about what makes a perfect family.
Everyone enjoyed a BBQ as they signed the banner in the beautiful sunny weather.
The day was finished with Mass and singing with the children leading the prayer.
