Spark On The Road: Holyhead

For some background, Spark was the brainchild of one young person who bought a team together of other young people to run an event to support even more young people across North Wales!

As LLYFC, we hold the team accountable and shepherd these events through from start to finish. So far we’ve run two: the first at the end of last Summer with Rob Beamish coming to speak, and the second at Christmas with a dinner. Both have been amazing events!

This weekend we held our first ‘Spark on the road’ event at Elim Church in Holyhead. We had just under 50 young people and youth leaders show up from Bangor, Holyhead, Llandudno, Llanfairfechin and Old Colwyn.

The evening included games, worship, two fantastic testimonies by Redefiners (Fu & Lauren), Grill A Christian/Gospel talk with text in questions (with Tim) and a great meal to end.

The night was a tremendous success! It was amazing seeing youth groups mix and new friendships being forged. It was a great night for non Christians to watch their peers worshiping God – and they responded really well to the ‘grill a Christian’ session. The team of young people running it are really coming into their own and are maturing very quickly!

We’re excited to see this organically grow, excited to see Christians networking, and excited to see people hearing the Gospel for the first time – bring on the next!
