Lifehope TiM - Teens in Mission in Southampton, UK

United Kingdom

We want to equip, train and challenge Christian Teens to reflect Jesus Christ and to use their God given gifts to bring Hope to the World.
As a result, we hope to see the community here in Southampton impacted. We also hope that all participants will go away strengthened in their faith and with a deeper desire to share their faith with their friends back at home.

You will join with many international young people for a time of orientation and training to help you share your faith. You will then reach out to kids, youth and their families. Most days, there will also be NET times where you will meet in small groups to share and pray together.

Ministry Details
The programme will aim to be varied and related to teenagers. You will be working with an established community project, building on the relationships that have already been developed over the years. Each year, we partner together with an organisation in a socially deprived area that offers a whole week of fun events for children, youth and their families. Based in the Dip Park, there will be kids clubs, face painting, hair braiding, nail painting, bouncy castle, sports, games, drama, dance, BBQs and lots of fun. Teenagers will have the opportunity to help out with the different activities and make friends with the people in the community.
