SERVE 2023
Connor Diocese are running the SERVE Programme in 2023!
The course is for young people and young adults aged 15 to 20 and prepares those who are exploring leadership in their local parish context. It is a great opportunity to meet new people and develop character traits which are invaluable in leadership. It will equip young people and young adults to serve in their home Parishes with confidence and enthusiasm.

SERVE will include 8 sessions and a Graduation event. It will be begin on Thursday 28th September. 
Each session will run from 6pm - 9pm in The Hub Chaplaincy, Elmwood Avenue, Belfast. 
The dates for all sessions are: 28th September, 5th October, 12th October, 19th October,  9th November, 16th November, 23rd November, 30th November. There will be a graduation for participants to attend with friends, family, leaders and clergy. Participants are asked to attend all sessions and there is some preparatory work for each session.

To participate in SERVE, it costs £50 per participant, to cover dinner each week, a handbook, a sweatshirt as well as graduation ceremony and certificate. Participants can apply to the CIYD Young Leaders Fund for support with the cost.

The closing date for applications is Sunday 17th September 2023.
