The
Location

Belfast

On this experience Engage partners with Salt Factory Sports outside the capital city of Belfast to help facilitate a VBS-type sports camp with kids. There will be opportunities to play games with kids. Engage does not require you to be a sports superstar to go on this trip, but rather have a general ability to lead activities, competitions, and games. The camp will also be intentional with Team Times (Bible stories and teaching) for kids and youth. Being able to mix with, build relationships with, and engage with the kids is key. Relationships enable effective outreach! There will also be times of worship with the kids, so some people gifted in this area would also be an asset to the team, as well as talented photographers! Join us in Northern Ireland to partner in the work God is doing as we play, build relationships, and point others to Jesus.
