Autumn Encounter, save the date!

We’re delighted to be holding another Encounter event for women in Down and Dromore on Saturday 8 November 2025. We’ll be gathering from 9.30am in St John’s Orangefield in Belfast, and our speakers will be Ali Calvin and Natalie Trainor.

Ali, who leads Christ Church Kilkeel, was to teach at the last Encounter and we’re so pleased that she is well again and has agreed to join us in November.

Natalie is an evangelist and a Pioneer Minister in training with the Church of Ireland. She recently planted The Grove in Newry and has many faith-building stories to share.

Hilary McClay will host, Jude Frame will lead our worship and Glynis Matchett will lead the prayer ministry team.

Tickets will be released at the end of August so please share the news now and save the date!

About

Encounter is a morning of worship, Bible teaching and fellowship and is for all women from all our parishes.

We will worship together, hear the Bible taught in practical and encouraging ways, have brunch together and the opportunity for prayer.

We’re looking forward to seeing you and some friends on Saturday 8 November 2025.
