Throughout the weekend
at Breakout, from dawn til dusk, there will be the opportunity for
you to go 'Beyond' with God.
From energetic, heart-thumping worship
to soulful chill-out in the creative prayer spaces... worship
with hundreds of others or with a group from your tent village.
Maybe you are just curious about faith or maybe you want to go
deeper. Whether you are looking to take home ideas and resources
to inspire
your local churches... or just want some time-out to think and
ask questions... or want to experience worship in a different
way... Breakout
has it all for you!
Explore what it really means to go ‘beyond’ with God – in
faith
- in prayer
- in action
- in your community
- in love
- in church
- in worship
- in life
We are developing an exciting programme for Spirituality at Breakout.
Look at what we’ve got so far...
- Christian Aid will be
around for the whole weekend getting you involved in their
campaigns and joining in with the worship. Watch out for
their activities around the site.
- Check out ‘Breathe’ over
the weekend. It’s a colourful,
interactive, reflective installation. Travel around the
12 different sections listening to thought-provoking material
on an mp3 player.
It’s personal, it’s different, it’s an
experience, try it!
- Jonny Baker will be with us on Saturday
night leading us
in his own unique style of worship. He will also be leading
a multi-media
style communion on the Sunday morning.
- Visit ‘Café Sundae’ on
Saturday afternoon for a time of café-style worship – fun
and games guaranteed! Read more about Café Sundae
below.
Christian Aid
Go Beyond your world with Christian Aid. They will be around the site, in the Christian Aid area of the
cafe and getting you fired up and passionate about global injustices. Come and make sure you find them for loads of games,
campaigns and prayer actions (and the chance to meet someone famous!). We will also be leading a chilled out love feast
on the Sunday morning, so please join us for an informal worship and global communion.

Breathe
Breathe gives you an opportunity to think about some of life’s big questions - to reflect on your
relationships with God, with others, with the planet and with yourself. You’ll listen to meditations as
you interact with twelve stations. It’s a chance to play, to think, to dream, to listen. Make space this
weekend to pause and take a deep breath. For more information about Breathe, please visit the website at www.dare2engage.org/breathe

Cafe Sundae
We're a group of people who decided that we wanted to try a different
way of doing church. In fact this will probably be ‘Church
as You’ve
Never Seen It Before’. Some months it is church as we've never seen it
before!
We are based at a Methodist Church near Manchester. Café Sundae
is aimed primarily at teenagers but anyone young at heart (who likes loud music,
games and film clips) is welcome.
You can come expecting a mixture
of:
- Café style
That means a cafe (obvious hey!) and chairs round tables
so you've got somewhere to keep a drink, rather than the normal
set-up of
row after row after row all facing the front.
- Interactive table
games
We like people to talk to each other, just a
little bit, and we promise they won't bite (hard).
- Multimedia
Lots of songs and pictures for you to ignore
because you're too busy going to the café to get
another smoothie, not that we mind... putting all that
work into it... hours
slaving away... sniff.
All challenging you to respond to
The Message...
That's a subtle way of saying that we believe
God loves us so much that you and I should change our lives, making
a difference to others, in our response to God's love. The chances
are that if you come to see us in Manchester, we'll be doing something
bizarre that month like setting up a barricade guarded by soldiers
so that no-one can even get into the church. No, seriously, please
feel free to come and see us.
Or why not become our friend on MySpace?
Or just wait till Breakout. See you there! Take a step beyond with God. Come to Breakout; Go Beyond.
