My Role
I am presently working with three difference ministries: Hangout, Community Ministries and the Base Maintenance Department.
At the Hangout we are committed to…
Reach out to the marginalized
Show love practically by meeting needs and building relationships.
To mentor and disciple people as individual people and in their gifts.
Instilling value in individuals.
Growing community.
The Hangout is a ministry that is hard to describe as it is undergoing a lot of changes at this time. The Hangout was originally a place where local teenagers would come to socialise despite their different in beliefs of Catholics and Protestants.
The ministry team would spend time investing in the kids’ lives — getting to know their hopes, fears, and dreams. God’s love was shown in a practical way. The kids often began to wonder why the team was doing it, which opened many doors to conversations about God.
After the loss of the building, the Hangout is still in the process of reforming and redirecting itself, and is being taken into the streets. The team goes into town on Saturday afternoons to meet with youths and chat over coffee or relax in the park. On Saturday nights the team goes in to partner with local churches handing out free tea, coffee and biscuits to people coming out of the clubs.
There is a lot of change occurring at this time and it will be exciting to see where God takes it.

Community Ministries Team
The Community Ministries Team aims to serve the Northern Irish community, particularly in the area where we live, by making known to them the love of God through our service and relationships. We do this through participation and presentations in schools, churches, youth groups, town events, clubs and groups.
