🌄 THE 4 J’s GO ALPINE FOR KILHORNE! 🥾

Hiking the Swiss Alps | 21–24 June 2025

Raising funds for Kilhorne Parish Restoration

Meet Julie, Jackie, Jill & Jane – aka The 4 J’s – and yes, we’re heading UP ⛰️ … way UP… into the Swiss Alps to help raise funds for the restoration of our beloved church.

We’re joining a group of 21 hardy souls from the Down & Dromore Diocese for two BIG days of hiking on the Via Alpina (we’re talking 20km+ and over 1,500 metres of ascent per day!).

🏕️ We’ll be staying in backpackers’ hostels (pray for us 😅), hiking with sore legs and full hearts, and soaking in the beauty of God’s creation.

“I lift up my eyes to the hills… My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.” – Psalm 121:1–2

💛 How you can help:

Please sponsor our efforts to help restore Kilhorne Parish – every step we take brings us closer to our goal!

We’ll be posting daily updates & photos 📸 so you can follow along, cheer us on, and maybe laugh a little at our blistered feet and questionable fashion choices.

Let’s climb mountains (literally!) for a cause that matters.

Love, The 4 J’s & Team Alps 🏔️
