1) How do Exodus teams work?

Before travelling, each Exodus team meets regularly to work through a ‘360 Adventure' course which includes, getting to know your team mates, having time for discussion, fellowship, fundraising and a residential.

When it comes to July or August your team will travel to their summer project in one of over 20 destinations worldwide.

2) Where & when do teams meet

Teams meet every week (with a few, short breaks possible for holidays and exams) starting the 2nd week of February. This year we have teams based in our Coleraine and Lisburn centres and in various locations in Belfast, Cookstown, Donegal, Limavady, Lurgan and Foyle.

Team meetings will generally be held in the evenings and will last about 2 hours.

3) What is the 360 Adventure?

The 360 Adventure provides groups of young people with an opportunity to grow personally and spiritually. Each team follow one of 4 courses each of which caters for young people at a different age and stage. A summary of each course is available here.

4) What is the Personal Contribution

The cost for each team member is broken into 2 amounts:
- A Personal Contribution - A contribution made by each team member determined by:

• Travel Costs,
• How long you stay
• The type of work you will be involved in.

- A Fundraising Contribution

• Approximately £300 per person for teams in Europe and £400 elsewhere
• Raised by personal and group fundraising activities

5) What if I cannot afford the personal contribution?

A bursary scheme is available for those who may struggle with the personal contribution. Individuals who may require a bursary are advised to apply for teams with a lower personal contribution.

6) How do I join a team?
