Oasis Romance Academy
The second Romance Academy on Wirral took place at the Oasis centre in Wallsaey and the weekend away this term was definitely one of the highlights. 13 of us visited the outdoor pursuits centre Colemendy for one weekend in November and took part in some daring activities including the favourite 3G swing.
This was a serious adrenaline rush for the young people! Safe in helmet and harness the rip cord is released and they feel the G force as they fall into an exhilarating massive swing back and forth. This gave the young people a chance to conquer their fears and test their nerves, being winched as high as they dare! The weekend away was a great success in developing relationships and creating an open space for the young people to talk about issues that otherwise may be hard to talk about. The 10 young people have recently graduated from the 3 month academy and we are confident that they have been given a good foundation on which to build healthy God intended relationships. The next academy starts in january and is being ran in Pensby. Email zoe@wirralyfc.org.uk for more information.
