A great environment to help our kids grow! The world is a challenging and sometimes scary place for our youth. A privilege to spend quality time in God’s presence with NW family.

The teaching was so good, I have been refreshed and encouraged in my faith journey; even the ones I didn’t go to I heard from friends how terrific they were!

It’s a really great way for us as a church and community to come together and spend time in fellowship connecting with one another and catching up after summer in the beautiful sunshine. We get to camp together, there’s so much to do and it’s a really fun weekend!

Our kids are on fire for God. And I actually credit and thank New Wine a lot for that. I not only want that for my family I want it for every family. So that’s why we make an effort to come every year.

New Wine is here to equip the whole congregation, so anyone in a faith community can learn what it means to put your faith into a practical context. It’s really helped my husband and I live it out every single day of the week.

I’ve watched the generations - they get such a good deal at New Wine. I’ve watched them have the gospel presented to them. I’ve watched them get empowered and enabled not just as participants but as contributors in the gospel and in God’s kingdom adventure for them.

The real highlight for me is I see us all as the body of Christ together with our different shapes and flavours and we are here to worship the Lord and to be fed and to be filled.

I really enjoyed it, I liked the format, the speakers the general sense of fun and fellowship. All the speakers left little gems that will stay with me. I had the privilege of being invited to the team day and once again it was a treat. The band was great, and they had chosen some amazing songs.

Intimate, we took every opportunity to connect with people, such a blessing to meet together. Love it that the speakers and team just mix and mingle so you can meet them and chat. Thanks for making it happen in the present challenging times!

Spiritually it was an oasis! The music was fantastic, the speakers were amazing and the prayer time was healing and refreshing. Thank you for what you do it’s one of the highlights of our year! Our teenagers come and we love the role models that are there for them. Loved eating together and meeting new people from all over.
