The service will mark the 80th anniversary of the start of Christian teaching begun by T S Mooney in Londonderry, which still continues to this day.

'A book in his hand, a Saviour in his heart and a purpose in his life,' was the essence of the Christian teaching begun by T S Mooney, and while the leaders have changed, with boys only becoming boys and girls, and even though the nationwide organisation that was 'Crusaders' has been re-branded 'Urban Saints', the essential goal of reaching out to young people between the ages of 11 and 19 with the message of the Gospel, still continues.

Robert is a former 'old boy' of the class who has returned to the city as the Rector of Christ Church, Culmore, Muff and St Peters. A warm welcome awaits.
