Children and Families

Venues

Jesus loves families – and so do we! That’s why the Family Venue at Creation Fest 2021 is going to be focusing on families engaging with God together.

New for the Big Weekend!

COVID related guidelines make it very difficult for our usual kid’s programme to take place. That’s why we’ve been working hard to design creative ways of children and families engaging with God together. It may look a little different to previous years, but it’s going to be just as much fun.

Mornings

Families will be able to join in with the Big Shed worship together. Then, grown-ups can connect with the Big Shed teaching sessions whilst children grab a device, put on their headphones, and discover more about God via the wonders of technology!

We have teamed up with Allstars Kids Club to produce high-quality, fun and interactive digital content for children that will run alongside the main morning sessions. Families will be able to sit together and learn about God in different ways.

We will also be opening up the Family Venue to run Splash, a space for 0-4’s and their parents/carers to play, chat and have fun learning about God together.

Afternoons

Family Venue: 1.30pm – 3pm

Each afternoon, kids and grown-ups will be able to take part in a fun and interactive session for families that is completely covid safe. There’ll be worship, a bit of teaching and lots of board game stations that will enable families to talk about God, read the bible and have a whole lot of fun! There will also be some large-scale art to get involved in as a family.

We are committed to making sure that kids and families leave the festival knowing more about God, having a deeper relationship with Him, and feeling better equipped to explore faith together when they get home.

So, make sure that your family join in with Creation Fest 2021 as we shout loud about the fact that hope is here!
