This summer is our 3rd visit to the village of Killyleagh, Northern Ireland. Our primary ministries are Children’s Bible Club for the youngsters ages 4-11, Sports Camp for students aged 11-16, and church involvement. These activities not only involve games and fun, but also provide an opportunity for us to present the gospel to young people who feel the stress between Catholics and Protestants in their community. We serve alongside three local churches in Killyleagh: The Church of Ireland, 1st Presbyterian, and 2nd Presbyterian.

Team Size: 24
Team Leader: Bill Stevenson
