This will be the 9th year the festival will take place. We have changed the date this year to give more people an opportunity to come and expereince the festival.

We have big plans for this year again, we have a great line up of speakers including Andrew O Connell, Sr Helen Prejan (Author of ‘dead man walking’) Brian Mc Kee and many more. There will be workshops on drum, dance, music and clay and pottery. There will also be smaller talks called ‘food for thought’ on subjects such as struggles with faith, love & relationships, scripture and more.

Elation Ministries will be playing throughout the weekend, Psalm drummers and Donking dancers will also be performing.

The festival is really an opportunity to come away for a weekend and expereince something different. It gives people an opportunity to explore, question, ignite and celebrate their faith.
