What does a typical day look like at Sligo for Under 18s?
Under 5s
No-one is too young to join in the fun at New Wine. Each morning, our Under-fives will be setting off on an adventure to discover more of who Jesus is and to experience His love for them. With age-appropriate sensory play, dressing up, arts and craft, action songs and stories, there will be plenty of fun in store!
The Under 5s programme runs at the same time as the two morning sessions and consists of songs, story time, craft, toys, snack time and everything else you could possibly think of that will keep your little ones entertained all morning! The rooms are an oasis of entertainment for the week; fully equipped with great toys, bean bags, colourful decorations and even indoor slides!
The Café upstairs in the Arena has live audio and video if parents of younger children would find that a helpful way to engage in the evening celebration.
5-10s
The 5-10s programmes combine silly games, live worship, videos, creative prayer, craft & cookery, drama, Bible stories and lots more so that everyone can encounter Jesus and have fun at the same time.
In the first morning session we meet together for an intentional Bible time where we unpack a bible story and learn a memory verse along with some messy games and challenges to get you ready for the day
In the second morning session we split into our age groups and do some games, craft and bible time.
In the evening we have a big theme night with lots of fun activities as well as one of our leaders sharing take home message.
Youth
We know how difficult it can be for teenagers to get excited about attending something they are unsure about, with lots of people they maybe don’t know. But we also know how enthusiastic and engaged they can be when they experience something that has been designed specifically for them and meets them where they are at.
The programme will be fun, interactive and lively as we seek to facilitate space for young people to encounter God, grow deeper in relationship with Him and learn how to live that out in every day life, changing the culture around us to one that points to Jesus. We have awesome speakers, fantastic worship band and a brilliant team of leaders ready to hang out with the coolest people at Sligo.
