The diocesan discipleship weekend for young people aged 11–18 took place at Castlewellan Castle from September 6–8.
Connor Youth Council put together a busy programme which included sessions led by The Big House; worship; small group time as well as outdoor activities, including Soft Arrow Combat and Salt Factory Sports on the Saturday afternoon slot.
Activities also included a late night lake walk, discussion groups, the ever–popular Connor’s Got Talent, and lots of food and praise.
