Meeting progress

Hosts enter

Dear friends, we are glad to see you here! As you already understood, you got on board the Good News ship! Let's get acquainted! I am the captain of the ship.... Andrei! And these are my assistants - midshipmen: (you can think about the title and names, everyone salutes) they will help me along the way! (you can line up and do roll call)

Let's name names together! (children shout their names at the same time, the leaders play along with them)

So guys, are you ready for our journey? Tell me, on such a dangerous journey, when you are far from home, from your parents, what is most important to you? What and who do you need to bring with you? (children answer, the presenters lead to the fact that it’s impossible to travel without a friend)

Yes, guys, we're lost without a friend. Are you good at making friends? Now we will play with you, and in these games we will once again make sure that it is important when there is a shoulder of a person who can always support you!

Hall games

1. "The Right Course". Skittles are placed on the floor so that they indicate underwater reefs, between which it is necessary to navigate the ship. First, young sailors carefully study the location of the reefs, then each of them is blindfolded in turn and offered to guide the ship, bypassing dangerous places. To do this, the hall is divided into 3 parts (3 ships), three captains are selected who study the location of the reefs, and then the captain builds his ship from the participants with a “train” and tries to go around the reefs blindfolded. Each team goes through its route in turn.

2. "Knot". Every sailor should be able to tie and untie knots. For this game, the driver, hereinafter - "Confusion" Unravel the knot is given to the captain. He praises them for their resourcefulness and skill.

3. "Pumps". The captain comes running and announces that a storm is beginning, and this is a good test for the strongest and most courageous. Powerful waves one after another fall on our ship! We urgently need to pump out the water! Several pairs are selected. They stand with their backs to each other, clinging with their elbows. In this position, they fall to the deck, which means that the "pumps" are in action. Without assistance, they will have to rise and fall within 1 minute. Whoever gets more "jocks" wins.

4. "Tug of War"

5. "Swamp". Imagine that we landed on a desert island, with marshland. We need to get through the swamp from the ship to land. To do this, it is necessary to give each participant two sheets of paper, and show how to cross the swamp: standing with one foot on one sheet, simultaneously rearrange the second sheet further away from you, then jumping onto it, put the first sheet further from the second.

6. "Shipwreck". The area is indicated (with chalk, rope, newspaper on the floor) - this is an island of salvation. Every 10-15 seconds, the captain removes newspaper after newspaper, narrowing the island, the players need a way to help the crew members not to “fall into the sea”, for this they have to stand on one leg, hold on to a friend.

The facilitator concludes:

Guys, you showed yourself to be so brave, dexterous, and most importantly, you showed how you can make friends. Remember how you pulled the rope, and how important was the effort of everyone, how you tried to keep your boat on the right course so that not a single member of the crew died, how cleverly you twisted knot that it was beyond the power of the captain to unravel it. How did you tell your friends how to move over bumps and stones in the swamp. We admire you!

Children's performance

Captain, we're approaching Talent Island. Guys, this is not an easy island, you have such an opportunity: to show your talents. Don't think that the sailors on the ship don't have fun. We can sing and dance. And when there is an opportunity, we are happy to show everything we are capable of. And you?

Performance of children (3-4 people)

Game "Guess the melody"

Did you see how they applauded you?! And how we experienced sailors liked your participation! You have shown what you are capable of! You can both sing and dance! Tell me, do you like it when your friends can do something? Do you express your approval and support to them? So you know how to make friends! And now it's time for us to go. Our friends are sailing on another treasure ship, we need to catch up with them in order to find them together.

Jesus wants to be your friend

Captain! Look what I found! I was fishing right at the stern, and I came across this bottle in the net. There is something there! Shows to children. Offers to pull out a note. Children read it, it says that something important is hidden in the ship, under the porthole (under the window). They find a flash drive.

1. So who is a true friend? This is someone we can call at any time.
2. Or send sms?
3. This is the one who is there when something important happens to you.
4. The one who knows how to keep secrets
5. This is the one who rejoices in your victories
6. And he gets upset with you if something is wrong with you.
7. This is someone you can have fun with
8. And keep quiet.
9. One who is a friend not only in contact, but also in real life.
10. This is someone who is willing to take risks for you.
11. This is the one who will be with you, even if everyone is against
12. And someone who is not afraid to tell you the truth, no matter how bitter it may be.
13. This is someone who accepts you for who you are. Appreciate such friends!
14. But even if it happens that you lose your friends due to a move, or because you change schools; if it turns out that you are left completely alone, I want to say that you still have the One who is ready to be your true friend!
15. He is invisible, but He speaks to your heart. You hear him when he asks you to give up your seat on the bus
16. Or apologize to your mom.
17. He is always there. He keeps your life and inspires you to good deeds!
18. Once He also lived on earth and was just like you, He did a lot good people but there were those among them who did not understand and did not accept Him. And He died.
19. But He was an extraordinary man. He was God! And so He conquered death and resurrected! Over time, you will learn more about Him, but the main thing I would like to tell you today is that He will never betray you, will not leave you, and will always support you and keep your life. You can turn to Him with requests. He will listen to them carefully and will definitely answer.

The presentation turns on, the presenter reads the text. And brings the children to the essence of the meeting. Jesus is a True Friend, ready to be always there.

Grant him good health and the love of others, understanding and sympathy ...
Make his soul always shine with only love for all things, protect him from slander,
from insults and envy, from wars and deaths, from physical and mental pain, if all this is inevitable,
- do not leave him and then, give consolation. Save for him everything that is dear to him on earth.
If it's too late to ask for it, don't deprive him of his memory...
I don’t know if the one who is reading this prayer about him now believes in You, but even if he does not believe: help him!
Let him feel that he is not alone, that he is needed and loved ...
Merciful and kind my Lord! Fulfill my wish!
Perform it so that before my eyes close, I can say:
"Thank You, Lord! You hear me.

It rained in vain, and with a cool dawn

The fields were refreshed with heavenly dew.

Year after year passes,

From those grains there is not and there will be no fruit.

3RD CHARACTER: Spartak-Dynamo, Dynamo-Spartak! Well, the game will be today! It's time, it's time to get ready for football.

He fusses, as if looking for something.

3RD CHARACTER: Where are my flags, banners? Spartak is a champion! Spartak is a champion!

Suddenly he stops suddenly, as if he remembered something.

3RD CHARACTER: Wow, today is Monday. And on Mondays I usually read the Bible. Well, what can you do. Don't miss football! (decidedly) No, you can't live like that. It is impossible that the vanity of life swallow me up! Now I'll take up the Bible, where did I stop last time? So so so...

Thinks, scratches in the back of the head

3RD CHARACTER: What if I watch some TV? Well, here, again, these sinful thoughts about worldly pleasures. No, that's not possible! O! Invented! I'll cast lots on what to do. If it comes up tails - I watch TV, if it comes up heads - I go to football, and if the coin hangs in the air, then there is nothing left - I will read the Bible.

He tosses a coin, looks at what has fallen.

3RD CHARACTER: What do I see? The eagle fell!

Hooray! Hooray! I'm going to football!

Spartak is a champion! Spartak is a champion! CHARACTER 3 runs away.
LEADING: So it was with the grain that fell into the bushes:

It became a victim of earthly turmoil.

4 ACT
LEADING: But the seed that fell into the good land,

As the harvest time comes,

Preparing a hundredfold fruit,

High and fast and growing strong.

4TH CHARACTER: I want to grow high and fast, To bring many fruits to Jesus. I will show virtue in my faith,

I will be a faithful witness of Jesus Christ.

I will invite friends and acquaintances to me,

I will tell them about eternal life.

Friends, come here, I have something important for you. I want to tell you about the God in whom I believe.
The 4th CHARACTER starts to sing the song, at this time several people come on stage and sing along to him. One of them is FRIEND. 4TH CHARACTER: Mercy will give. FRIEND: What will give?

4TH CHARACTER: Will give happiness, joy forever

FRIEND: Yes?

4TH CHARACTER: You just call to Him

FRIEND: To whom?

4TH CHARACTER: Come quickly to Jesus Christ

FRIEND: Christ?

4TH CHARACTER: Yes! Choose your path

FRIEND: Which?

4TH CHARACTER: which Christ offers

FRIEND: Christ?

4TH CHARACTER: Respond to evil with love

FRIEND: So what?

4TH CHARACTER: God himself will be at the end of the road.

FRIEND: Great!

LEADING:

Brings Christ multiplied fruit.

Everyone leaves the stage. Only the LEADER remains. He goes to a large painted tree (or one made from real branches and hangs fruits on it, on which is written: PEACE, LOVE, etc. according to the words of the text)

LEADING: In such a person there are fruits of the Spirit, Jesus Christ are full of beauty

Let's repeat them again now.

The first one is LOVE.

The next two, as Paul taught,

It is not difficult to remember: JOY and PEACE

To all of us from you according to the teaching

You have to have LONG SUFFERING

And growing from year to year

We will grow the GOOD fruit.

Let's be kind, let's be diligent,

To the suffering, the poor, we will show MERCY

Whoever serves Christ, let him have without measure

Worthy, strong, steadfast FAITH

God's servant cares about God

Humility and MEEKNESS have in the heart

And finally, as God's creatures,

Let us strive for abstinence.

So in good soil the seed grows,

Brings Christ multiplied fruit.
The SEEDER appears
LEADING: There was a sower with grains in the field and sowed;

And the wind scattered those grains everywhere.

SOWER: Tell me, friends, and your grain,

What fruit does it bring?

For the meek conquers without a doubt

Enemies of all with his meekness.

2. THE PARABLE OF THE WEDDING Feast

Novorossiysk, 1999
Tsar: Finally, my son is getting married.

Slave, ra-ab! Take the list. Call everyone!

Let all come from those who have been called as one.

I will arrange a feast in honor of love.

SLAB: I will do everything, my lord!

You are waiting for your guests at the feast.

The slave leaves and after a while returns.

SLAB: King, they don't want to go!

Perhaps we can find others?

KING: But my dinner is ready.

And I call close friends.

They killed the best calves.

Go to them again soon.

My son is blessed with a marriage!

I won't accept a rejection...

The slave leaves again and after a while returns.

KING: Oh, what is the matter with you, my faithful slave?

You're all hurt... So weak.

SLAB: Oh my lord, only me

He remained alive of all the slaves.

Others have gone to the fields,

And the rest of the people gathered

I killed your slaves.

I avoided their axes.

KING: Well, then, let my troops

Burn without pity their city

But where to look for guests now?

After all, my son is getting married! He is young.

He wants a holiday! Oh yes!

Oh, my servant, come here.

Go outside, call

Passers-by all to the feast of love!

And he welcomes every guest!

Both evil and good let him come,

Dressed in festive attire!

My son wanted to get married.

Feast on dishes, calves!

Today is a big holiday for us!

Let everyone rejoice with me!

The king sees a man not dressed in festive clothes.

KING: And you, my friend, are not dressed like that.

ile festive clothes No? (he is silent)

Hey servants! Here, tie him up.

Into outer darkness now

Take him away quickly.

Let them reach him

Terrible, terrible gnashing of teeth.

And crying sad heart cuts!
SLAB: Why execute him like that?

After all, he did nothing.

KING: Understand, there are many called in the world,

Yes, few are chosen, desired.

Pantomime

(Matthew 25:14-30)

Novorossiysk, 1999
LEADING: A man, going to a foreign country, called his servants and entrusted them with his property: and to one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one, each according to his strength; and immediately set off.
MASTER: Here I am going on my way.

I'm going to a foreign country.

I want someone to stay

And would save for me

All the silver that I leave.

Here, five talents, slave,

I calmly trust you.

You will return when I arrive. Them.

1ST SLAB: I will keep them, master

And I will return everything to you as one!

(to the second slave) Keep them like the apple of your eye.

I myself will reward you for your work,

When I come from afar.

2nd Servant: I will carefully keep them,

To return to the master!

MASTER: There is only one talent left

(to the 3rd slave) And if you save it,

I will be very, very happy.

Wait for my return!

3RD SLAB: I will vigilantly guard,

To give it back to you!

MASTER: I gave you talents according to your strength!

I hope I didn't miscalculate!

LEADING: The one who received the five talents went and put them to work and acquired another five talents; in the same way, he who received two talents acquired the other two; but the one who received the one talent went and dug it in the ground and hid his master's money. After a long time, the master of those servants comes and demands an account from them.
MASTER: The other side is beautiful!

But ours is still cuter!

And only now it became clear to me

How I missed her!

But what about my talents?

How did you manage them?

1st Servant: You entrusted me with five talents.

I used them for business.

I got ten talents!

MASTER: You turned out to be a smart slave.

Tried to be smart!

Once in a small way you were faithful to me,

I'll give you a big deal!

2ND SLAB: I also invested two of mine

I got four for them.

MASTER: I trusted you not in vain

I am quite pleased with you.

If you coped with the small things boldly,

I will give you a big deal!

3rd Servant: Oh, you are cruel, my lord!

Not sowing, stinging and collecting, not scattering.

You gave me one talent.

I buried it wishing

Talent to save from all thieves.

Ready to give it to you!

MASTER: You are so crafty, lazy and stingy!

You were very stupid.

Would you give talent to someone

Who managed to do ten out of five.

And profit would bring him.

After all, who dared to multiply this,

And he will continue to receive.

I will drive the slave into darkness,

There will be gnashing of teeth!

And tears will break his heart!

5. THE PARABLE OF THE GOOD SAMARITAN

Novorossiysk, 1999

HOST: Once a traveler was going to Jericho.

He was peaceful and calm.

But the robbers attacked him,

And he couldn't do anything!

1st ROBERT: Take your wallet as soon as possible,

Hold on so he can't escape!

2nd Robber: You beat him too much,

Leave him. For him to be alive.

LEADING: The traveler remained a little alive.

The priest walked along the path

PRIEST: Oh, poor thing, you are all wounded!

No one will give you water!

However, I need to hurry!

I have to be in the temple soon!

LEADING: And he went about his business.

Leviticus stopped there.

LEVITH: Who could beat him like that?

How can their land bear?

Let others take care of him

I have no time, and I have nothing to do with it.

LEADING: So our traveler alone remained,

But suddenly a donkey appeared in the distance.

Some man is sitting on it.

He tears. Looks at the traveler.

And it looks like he's not leaving.

May be. Our traveler is saved?!

SAMARIAN: Oh, what's the matter with you? You're all beat up!

And blood runs from your wounds!

PUTNIK: They wanted to kill me,

For some reason they regretted it.

SAMARITAN: I will heal wounds with oil,

I'll give you water to drink.

Let's go to the hotel with me!

My donkey is at your service.

TRAVELER: But I won't be able to pay,

After all, before you beat like this,

They robbed me.

But still thank you!

SAMARIAN: Well, I'll pay for you,

Because I want to help you!

HOST: He took care of him.

And I want to say that

That we must love our neighbors,

And the neighbor. Who cares

Our care and love.

Good will return to us again!

(Prith in verse)
LEADING: Recent times it has come

living on earth now.

It's sad, it's sad

In nations, churches and families.

All people are now indifferent.

Nothing scares anyone.

Only the weight fell on their souls,

And their hearts are cold.

But time is running out.

And soon our Bridegroom will come.

Ready for a feast He is with Himself

He will take you to the Kingdom of Heaven.

Let's look at the picture.

What Jesus showed us

About the Kingdom of Heaven and the Virgins,

What a lesson He gave us in it.

Our bridegroom ascended to heaven

And soon He will come again.

Here the maidens come forward,

To be with Him at the feast.

Ten maidens come out and sit in front.

1st WISE: Here are ten of us here,

So that we all meet the Bridegroom.

But will it come to earth soon

We don't know the hour or the day.

But we will try, sisters,

All the time neither sleep nor doze off.

And cheerful, with a burning luminary

Look forward to it.

Our bridegroom will soon arrive,

Perhaps even at this hour.

Look, wait with vigor

So that he does not meet us sleeping.

1st UNREASONABLE: So I reason with myself,

Perhaps it won't come soon.

Why be so afraid

Like now He's coming?

2nd WISE: Oh, my dear sisters!

We want to go with Him to the feast.

And sooner or later,

Neither we nor this world know!

But let our light shine brightly

And let the oil be in reserve.

And let love burn in the heart,

After all, He will come to take us soon.

2nd UNREASONABLE: Here we are talking to ourselves like this

And we wait impatiently for Him.

And if he suddenly slows down there,

We will be able to meet Him.

3rd WISE: Oh, sisters, why think this,

What, he won't come soon?

All we need now is to believe.

To meet Him when He comes.

3rd UNINTELLIGENT: Some kind of heaviness finds

I don't have the strength to wait for him anymore.

And it makes me sleepy,

My lamp began to dim.

4th WISE: For our encouragement here

Let's repeat the words together

From the book of Saint Matthew

Words of Jesus Christ.

Together: Therefore, keep on the watch, for you do not know the day or the hour

who will come the Son of Man.

4th UNINTELLIGENT: The long-awaited one would soon come,

So that we can stay at the feast.

Now the oil is burning

And it's boring to wait

5th WISE: Oh, sisters, I see perfectly,

That the hour of dormancy has come.

But let's be strong and ready

To keep us from sleeping.

And I offer you, sisters,

Let's sing at least one song.

Which so clearly sings:

"Go to meet Him."

Everyone sings.

5th UNINTELLIGENT: How long does our Bridegroom go.

And we have a little oil,

And our light is fading away

He will make us sleep.

1st WISE: Oh no, don't try to sleep you!

May be. What is at this hour

Our long-awaited Bridegroom will come

And he will find us sleeping!

The five foolish virgins begin to fall asleep with their heads bowed down.

2nd WISE: Oh, sisters. See don't sleep

After all, sleep is coming to you.

You keep your luminaries.

He will return to us soon.

You are ready to feast with Him

Heavenly and nuptial enter.

So that we don’t cry bitterly later,

Standing at the closed door.

Then he will tell you: “Go away,

Unhappy, it's too late now.

I don't know who you are, where from,

The door is closed forever.”

3rd WISE: Let's stay awake a little,

Perhaps He will come soon.

And let's go out to meet all boldly,

And he will take us all to the feast.

All 10 maidens fall asleep with their heads down.

LEADING: Then the Kingdom of Heaven will be like ten virgins who, taking their lamps, went out to meet the bridegroom. Of these, five were wise and five were foolish. The foolish, taking their lamps, took no oil with them. The wise, along with their lamps, took oil in their vessels. And as the bridegroom slowed down, everyone dozed off and fell asleep. But at midnight there was a cry: behold, the bridegroom is coming, go out to meet him.

CALLER: Here comes the bridegroom!

Why did you fall asleep and sleep?

Get up from your sleep!

The groom is coming! hurry up

To go out and meet Him!

Get up, get ready!

Light up your lights.

Try to go faster

Hurry to the feast with him to enter!

He's coming! Come out soon

Towards. Testament his voice

To feast you. Go see

So that He does not pass by you.

The five wise virgins have risen, but the foolish sleep.

1st WISE: Now the cry has already been heard

Our groom is coming.

Why are we sleeping here?

He is waiting for all of us.

2nd WISE: Rather, wake up dear sisters

Let the light be corrected in their luminaries.

The 3rd wise maiden addresses the sleeping.

3rd WISE: Get up, why are you sleeping?

Get up, the groom is here!

Rather light the lights

Until He passed.

4th WISE: Get up, because time does not wait for us!

Go to meet Christ.

After all, the doors can close!

Where will you go then?

The five foolish virgins awaken.

1st UNINTELLIGENT: What's the matter? Why are you in such a hurry?

Let's get out now.

Why are you yelling at us like that?

Like the door is closed?

2nd WISE: We awaken you!

Our fiance has arrived!

How long do you sleep?

Let's go ahead!

4th UNINTELLIGENT: Oh, how can we go? After all, our light went out!

And we have absolutely no oil in the vessels.

The five foolish virgins speak to the wise.

UNINTELLIGENT: Please give it to your oil.

TOGETHER: Our lamps are completely out!
5th WISE: We cannot do this,

To give you the oil now.

Perhaps then the disadvantage

Happen to you and to us.

So you better go

All of you to the sellers soon.

And buy your own oil there,

To make the light shine brighter.

Foolish virgins go out to buy oil.

1st WISE: Oh, sisters, let's go quickly

With a burning torch in their hands.

We will hasten to the feast with the Bridegroom

And we will be with him in heaven.

They leave singing a psalm.

LEADING: When they went to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding feast, and the doors were closed; then other virgins come.

2nd UNINTELLIGENT: Oh, where are our sisters that they are not here?

And where can we look for them to walk together?

1st UNINTELLIGENT: Their lights burned brightly,

And there was oil in the jars.

As soon as the Bridegroom knocked,

They all entered the feast before Him.

5th UNINTELLIGENT: Why did we sleep when our light went out?

Oh what are we to do? Where to go?

All we had to do was knock on the door.

1st UNINTELLIGENT: And I suggest, let's go to the door

And we'll knock, won't they open the door for us?

5th UNINTELLIGENT: Why did we doze, that our light went out?

And there was no oil in our vessels.

Those five are at the feast now.

And we were here knocking at the door.

3rd UNINTELLIGENT: What are we going to do here now,

(weeping) Standing at the groom's door?

Ask to pray. May be,

The gates will open for us.

4th UNINTELLIGENT: And what happens when they don't let us in

(with tears) Where there is a Bridegroom's feast?

And they will say: we do not know where.

Go to darkness forever!

Oh, grief will be for all of us then,

When they won't let us in.

Remain, poor, insignificant

To sorrow, to shame, to blasphemy.

Friends, call with me

To let us all in there

Where are the wise virgins in the chamber

Always stay with Christ.

5th UNINTELLIGENT: O our God! God! Open to us!

We heartily pray, let us in!

Open the gate for us soon

Now it's too late, it's impossible to enter!

The foolish virgins fall on their knees and cry out

1st UNINTELLIGENT: Our Lord! Reveal to us

To the Bridegroom's chamber

Sign in

That heavenly door has closed forever!

2nd UNINTELLIGENT: Our Lord and our God! Open to us!

(weeping) Let us into the feast of the Bridegroom.

We beseech you, Merciful One,

Let us in, let us in!

After all, we went out to meet,

And we had the light in our hands.

Only the oil was gone from the vessels.

That heavenly door has already closed for you!

Don't knock now, I don't know you!

And go away, your hour has already passed!

Foolish virgins with weeping and sobbing leave the door.

5th UNINTELLIGENT: We were negligent, our oil was scanty.

And we became miserable, found ourselves at the door.
