Saturday 10 October
Amazing and inspiring - that's Abide!
Abide, our annual Diocesan Youth Event for 11–17 year olds, is taking place on Saturday 10 October 2026 at St Michael’s CofE High School in Chorley. Running between 2-7:30pm the event will include times of worship (including Eucharist led by Bishop Philip), workshops and activity spaces, big games, food, and barrel loads of fun!
Speakers this year are Bishop Philip and Christian influencers and speakers, John and Jade Reynolds. They will be helping us to unpack our theme with our core verse from John 1:5 – ‘The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.’
It promises to be an amazing and inspiring day as we gather to pursue and meet Jesus together. Youth leaders can register their groups to attend via the link here.
We can’t wait to see you there!
