Ballysillan Gospel Hall is used for the worship of God and utilised to help the people of the Ballysillan area, in running events such as: Sunday School, Every Boys rally, Every Girls rally, Parent & Toddlers Social events. We have special events, Outings and camps, and special arranged visits for the organised clubs, to fire stations and other
interesting places. The children are involved in learning and making crafts, and we sometimes would end the season with a BBQ outing. We have organised inter rally football competitions on an annual basis. Every four years the Northern Ireland Rallies arrange a weeks camp, called “Rally Arura” where up to 500 leaders and children meet ranging from age 10 to 18 years, all leaders have been cleared by Access NI and have regulated procedures for looking after the issues which may appear during the camp.
