The Ulster Project Arlington begins it's 17th year of ecumenical peace making in Northern Ireland.

For sixteen years, Arlington has provided host families for 16 Northern Irish teenagers from Belfast, Northern Ireland.  Our purpose has one goal, simply to let the Northern Irish teens realize that religious differences are beneficial, not detrimental.  The Project accomplishes this through activities in July that encompass community service, fun activities like Six Flags, team building exercises, and attending both Protestant and Catholic services.

Creating Unity Amid Diversity

since 1994

262 Northern Irish Teens     262 Arlington Teens

Newly Adopted Mission Statement      

The Mission of the Ulster Project is to help young, Christian based potential leaders from Northern Ireland and the United States to become peacemakers by providing a safe environment to learn by practicing the skills needed to unite people when differences divide them.
