Our First SPARK Conference!

‘For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands.’ 2 Timothy 1:6

Spark North Wales came out of the heart of the young people that attend our weekly Sunday night Bible study: ‘Redefine’. They wanted to organise an event for Christian young people in the North Wales area that would encourage and empower them to share their faith. Out of that desire ‘Spark’ was born.

It was great to see the young people meeting together regularly to plan this event and pray together for it. Everything from contacting speakers for the conference to designing the promotional artwork and flyers was done by the young people (with some help and support from LLYFC team members).

It was really well attended, with young people coming from as far afield as Penmaenmawr and Holyhead.

Many connections were made, and friendships built that will continue to be grown and developed, as was the case when at the end of December, the Redefiners organized a Christmas ‘Spark’ mini-event. This like its big brother was a great success, and a lot of fun was had.

Through events such as these, the young Christians in the area are being strengthened and encouraged in their faith, and are also developing their God given gifts and talents to serve each other and spread God’s message of grace and forgiveness to their communities. The Kingdom at work to see lives impacted and eternities changed.

But don’t just take our word for it; here’s some responses by the young people who attended these events:”It was AWESOME. All of us from Holyhead thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you” Brooke (Holyhead.)
