Schools in Harmony.
They are an ongoing expression of
the Aussie Awakening.

An Awakening Easter Festival brings Christians and churches in the area together to reach the community.
Usually in a local park, creating the Open Crowd, with a sausage sizzle, stage with local artists, refreshments, kids craft, giant jigsaws and other giant games. Then each half hour telling the Easter story in an Aussie parable, such as Simpson and his donkey along with donkey rides, or the Sunflower story ("unless a seed falls to the ground and dies ..."), along with simple craft making Sunflowers with children, and ladies dressed as Granny Smith handing our our unique Aussie apple while the story is being told. There's lots of ideas to use, and Awakening has printed some handy Mission Manuals that can help, as well as printed balloons and the Aussie Easter parable story brochures (including Simpson, Sunflower and Granny Smith)..... and usually there's new ideas at each festival! |
Interested seeing a Festival in your area?
There are possibilities and people looking for others to join themThe Awakening office can often help both in training, and for extra hands on the day if needed. It's a great opportunity for us to together show the hope of the Resurrection and invite people to re-connect with God, themselves, their family and the church. Nationally it is expected that about 300,000 wil be touched this Easter. |
