Durham International College

Each year the international college meets in a different country. This provides an opportunity for the international movement to learn more about the host country and also for Teams members in the host country to get a deeper understanding of the international movement.

Transatlantic Regional Couples with the leading team (the ERI).

Ushaw College was chosen because of its proximity to Durham and Lindisfarne, making it an ideal venue to explain the history of Christianity in these islands and the special place of Ushaw College seminary in the reestablishment of Catholicism in England after the Reformation.

Mass was celebrated every day in St Cuthbert's chapel and on Thursday Bishop Kevin Dunn (then) of Hexham & Newcastle celebrated Mass for us. Sadly Bishop Kevin died a few months later.
