Our Circuit Youth Group, God Squad, joined with more than 1,600 children and young people aged 4-18 years old, 560 leaders and 340 volunteers from across the Connexion to attend 3Generate, the Methodist Children and Youth Assembly.
A group of 4 young people and 4 adults from Poole Bay Circuit were among them. This year's 3Generate was held at the NEC in Birmingham from Friday 4 to Sunday 6 October.
3Generate is a vibrant weekend of fun and worship and this year saw over 2000 children and youth leaders attending. It started on Friday evening with icebreakers and a welcome session which set the tone for the weekend. Throughout the weekend speakers, artists and musicians shared their inspiring stories and encouraged those taking part to share their own.
"The event is about children and young people tuning into God, the world and each other, listening to what God is calling them to do now: taking action and making a difference in their community, the Methodist Church and the world. 3Generate offers the unique opportunity for them to explore how they can make a difference on their own, with their friends or at their church."
As always, if you are aged 11-18, or about to turn 11, do get in touch – you would be very welcome to join God Squad.
The group meet fortnightly on Sundays in term-time, 6:00-7:30pm at The Spire, Poole in Hall 1.
