VALE OF CLWYD YOUNG LIFE (VOCYL)
Vale of Clwyd Young Life (VOCYL) is a charity with a Christian ethos working alongside children & young people between the ages of 7-18 years of age within Ruthin and the surrounding villages. We believe there is great value in investing quality time working with young people in our community. The foundation for all that we do is the strong belief that the Christian faith is relevant and still works today and that Jesus Christ was speaking the truth when he said that he offers the very best, most fulfilling life.

JOB VACANCY – SESSIONAL YOUTH WORKER Bethel Presbyterian Church, Garden Village, Wrexham Duties include: Attending, supervising and organising two groups on a Thursday night, term time. The first group is for juniors aged approximately 7 ‑ 11 between 6 and 7.15 p.m.; the second group is for senior club aged 11+ and meeting between 7.30 and 9 p.m. You will need to arrive 15 minutes before the junior session and leave 15 minutes after the close of the senior session or when all members of the club have left the premises. You will need to prepare materials, speakers and activities for the two group sessions. You will have adult helpers but they will not be the same ones consistently. The activities, whilst needing to be stimulating and enjoyable, must take into account Christian values and all sessions should be clearly imbued with this by having a short prayer, 'thought for the day’ aspect etc. A small group of Church members and elders will discuss your programme with you and organise your adult support helpers. You need to complete a CRB check as soon as possible through the Presbyterian Church. Payment will be on a 41/2‑hour evening basis, taking account of attendance and preparation time. The payment will be by negotiation. Any additional expenditure will be repaid on presentation of receipts. This may include drinks and biscuits, paper etc. In many cases the Church will provide these. There are usually about 10 - 15 youngsters at each group session. They are friendly exuberant and enjoy attending. At times you will need to discipline them with firmness, friendliness and respect. In the case of activities taking place off the Church premises, you will need to obtain the written consent of their parents to attend the activity planned. Knowledge of basic first aid would be useful. Contact: Glyn Williams, Church Secretary ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

IGNITE CYMRU TEAM The Ignite Cymru team's getting seriously chock-a-block with bookings for schools, missions and other youth outreach opportunities. It's exciting times for them as they crack on towards the summer, but we're now having to seriously look hard at next year's team. Now you might wonder why I keep banging the Cymru drum, well the answer's simple - I just really believe in what they're doing!
So if you're over 18, are asking God what He wants you to do with yourself next year and are up for a year of full-on challenge and Gospel adventure (and living in a seriously old-school house!) then there's still room so sign-up!!!
