Autumn 2022 was a special time for the Emmaus Club as it celebrated its 21st Birthday.
Back in the mid 90s the Parish Council, the Rev. Alan Carr and others in the community worked together to start a weekly youth club in the Village Hall. Unfortunately it fizzled out after a few months. The Church then started up the Emmaus Club meeting monthly in the Hall, looking at the Bible, Youth issues and playing games.

After a couple of years the club then met fortnightly and included outdoor games and activities. In 2001 the Club began meeting weekly on a Friday evening. It has experienced ups and downs with numbers ranging from 30 plus to just 2 (we were once very close to closing), numbers now are around 15 – 20. I would like to thank all those who have helped out over the years, encouraged and prayed for the young people of the Parish. Also for Alex & Laura who attended weekly for 4 years and Callum Duncanson who has been a stalwart member, youth leader and adult helper. Here’s to the next 21 years ! Derek Shurvell.
