“Things are certainly in full swing with youth work in the Kairos Centre,” writes Ben Haas from Newscastle, Northern Ireland, UK. He’s not kidding. The week fills up with activity almost every night. Ben recently shared a list of the programs that go on each week.

• Tuesday: After-school homework haven; Bible study/prayer/fellowship with the volunteers; Drop-in for those between first through third year.

• Wednesday night dinners (and probably more things that I’m not thinking of).

• Thursday: Drop-in for those in primary school; Drop-in for those fourth year and up.

• Friday: Indoor football for boys, girls’ nights in Kairos, followed by drop-in till midnight.

• Saturday: YL/Fused (at the Newscastle Baptist Church); girls’ Bible studies

• Sunday: Drop-in for all ages following the evening service.

“The point is, there is a lot going on,” shares Ben, “and it takes many people who are actively involved who invest a significant amount of time, energy, and money. Remember to pray for our volunteers and the young people in our community that we care so much about. Pray that we all will have a close daily walk with God. Pray that as we work alongside each other that we will truly love one another. Pray also that we will have a heart of compassion like Jesus who came to seek and to save the lost.”
