Year 9 visit to ‘The Source’

On Wednesday 6th March seven Year 9 students took part in a monthly event known as ‘The Source’. The event was organised by the Youth Ministry Team (YMT) and took place at St Mary’s Church, Blackhill. The Source is a service which specifically targets students aged between 14-18 and youth participation is high on the agenda of the Catholic Partnership who aim to get youngsters involved in the ‘Year of Faith’.

The Source is not a mass; it is an age specific celebration of the Catholic faith and includes singing, drama, guest speakers, prayer, projections, videos and a live band. After the event the youngsters move over to the church hall for pizza and drinks and this provides a great opportunity to meet students from other Catholic schools in the partnership.

The students involved were surprised at how much they enjoyed the event and are looking forward to returning on the 1st May.

Any students who would like to attend please see Mr Swindells or Emma Ramsey.
