“AD33 is a solid platform where faith can arise, and be built.”

AD33 didn’t just introduce me to faith, but helps me build upon it. It has given me a support network to fall back on in doubt and friends to share my experiences and challenges with.

The various groups AD33 provide give me the chance to meet people of all ages and learn from them. J-team and Alive and Kicking give me the chance to encourage faith in others and challenge my own beliefs while having great fun. Youth Cell gives me a space to explore my faith in a non-judgmental environment; and it’s where I’ve met my best friends.

For me AD33 is a solid platform where faith can arise, and be built. Great relationships are formed and strengthened. It is a platform for God to use to bring his people together and build his church, along with giving young people like myself opportunities to lead, speak and feel God’s amazing love.

AD33 will always be eternal for me; no matter how far away I am, I am always close enough to be part of it.

“It’s a great fun-loving, safe place for young people to come and be themselves.”

AD33 has been one of the largest, most inspirational, challenging and educational influences in my life over the past 8 years.

I’ve been lucky enough to find amazing friendships through AD33, whether that’s from Youth Cell, where fellowship and a loving church family come first, or through my long time growing in faith at Alive and Kicking, a group I have been at/helped lead, for 8 years. It’s a great fun-loving, safe place for young people to come and be themselves.

Over time they have become more than leaders, colleagues or just young people. AD33 is family to me and will be with me wherever I am in the world.

XL-Mentoring

It’s changed me. I’ve gone from getting excluded all the time, to getting less detentions and moving up in sets.
