Frontline Youthwork Update March 2023

The groups and activities continue to go well, though not without the occasional challenges, they are well attended

  • SU in Riverbank is going well- with more than 40 attending over the 2 groups. It has become necessary to request the provision of a larger room by the school for these sessions. The group are currently using 'On the Way' material based on the gospel of Luke and looking at Jesus life.
  • SU at Northfield Academy too is a real encouragement with 6 or 7 boys regularly attending. The format of the group has been changed and is now a more relaxed group with the team playing games to build up relationships before introducing talks.
  • Riverbank Primary five-a-side football is proving difficult at present due to school H&S requirements not allowing football to be played during bad and /or wet weather. This does tend to cause a loss of momentum in attendance and participation.
  • Bible Alive started last week for P6,a teacher that the kids reapect has been helpful. Bible Alive didnt meet this week due to teacher strikes and may not take place next week.
  • Radiate has largely been going well however there has been a small group of girls who have been disruptive. This has been dealt with.
  • Illuminate continues to go very well with 15-20 young people attending
  • Friday night group continues.
