Weekly and Monthly
Each week a few folks from JIMS (Crew and staff) head to a local school to teach 3rd years ‘good citizenship’. On top of this, JIMS has partnered with Kingdom Youth Club in varios trips, in house competitions, and a midnight football scheme.
In the past year JIMS has been able to commit a Crew member (Becca Dean) to joining the Kilkeel High School Scripture Union committee. Alongside Becca, Megan and Dave help staff the weekly SU meetings.
Due to our budding relationship with SU at KHS, JIMS has partnered in running mentor groups through at KHS. This has been a blessing to both leaders and the young people involved.
Last Sunday of the month 8.00pm-10.30pm
Generally speaking, Souled Out meets on the last Sunday of each month. This youth worship service targets 3rd year and older…though all ages are welcome.
This is completely free…and is enhanced with great FREE tea, coffee, and biscuits that encourage our time of fellowship before and after the service.
Once a month…Saturday 6.30pm-8.00pm
In the spring of 2008 JIMS piloted a new programme called ‘That God Thing’. After hearing evaluations from both leaders and the youth involved, JIMS has made this a regular occurance.
For 1st-3rd years, That God Thin strives to teach, encourage, and challenge youth in their spiritual journey. We always have a time of fun, food, and fellowship that surrounds our teaching from the Word of God. And…it’s free!
