WHAT IS AUTUMN SOUL?
Find out more about Autumn Soul here!
Autumn Soul is a Christian discipleship event
for EVERY young person between 13 - 18.
Young people, leaders and volunteers come from all over the island of Ireland (Methodist connexion and beyond) for a weekend of exploring and discovering Jesus together.
No matter what stage they find themselves on their journey of faith, our programme is designed to be accessible for all teens.
The event focuses on missional discipleship through bible teaching, praise, seminars, community, and fun. It gives young people and youth groups the space they need to meet Jesus in fresh ways, learn about the Bible and encounter the Holy Spirit.
It is a safe space for those exploring faith, living out their faith and those who have questions about faith.
The Autumn Soul Experience
DEEP WORSHIP
Our worship aims to connect with Jesus through scripture, praise, prayer and the arts to be participatory, engaging, responsive and transformative. Young people and leaders encounter God through deep worship, coming away with more of an understanding that they are loved and invited to know their creator more.
PROFOUND TEACHING
We believe that the power of the Bible speaks to our young people today, directly into their lives and situations. We have been blessed with so many gifted communicators who love God’s word and also love young people. Whether it is main stage or Saturday seminars, speakers who can effectively unpack what God is saying to this generation in a relevant way are at the core of Autumn Soul.
challenge to serve
An event like Autumn Soul can often be a significant moment where young people become aware of how God has gifted them and how he is calling them. This impacts them both at a local level, serving in church, and further afield as they consider God’s wider call on their life.
THE CALL TO Prayer
There is a space to be prayed for safely by the Prayer Ministry Team. Autumn Soul equips and encourages young people with creative ways to pray and communicate with God, with the aim of enabling a deeper relationship with God.
“My experiences of the past three Autumn Souls have been very different, each with their own advantages. It must be said that regardless of delivery method (in-person or online) Autumn Soul is a special event in the Methodist Church calendar and I'm already looking forward to the next one!”
“I love Autumn Soul. I feel so welcomed and loved and encounter God in significant ways. This year I experienced the kindness and gentleness of God throughout the weekend and it has really strengthened my relationship with Him.”
Location
Autumn Soul takes place in Bangor, Northern Ireland.
We are based in Hamilton Road Presbyterian Church and use various other church properties in the city to accommodate sleeping, seminars, and workshops.
