The theme for the week was 'Bodybuilders' and in keeping with the theme, the church hall depicted a gym and the children enjoyed a host of activities that included Bible stories, lively music, singing, games, sports, crafts and lots of fun.

Assisted by a team of leaders from the church, they joined leader Matt Craig - Director of Youth Ministries at First Lisburn, who co-ordinated the programme.

The afternoon club, which was attended by about 100 children, was held from Monday August 15 - Friday August 19 from 1.00pm to 4.00pm with separate programmes running simultaneously for P1 - P4 and P5 - P7.

There was also an evening programme for young people of secondary school age.
