Operation Mobilisation to Cover 2000 Children in 2 Weeks

Operation Mobilisation Northern Ireland is giving its all in the final two weeks of the year as it visits 23 Catholic, Protestant and Gaelic-speaking schools across north west Ireland - around 2000 school children plus teachers in total.

The team is visiting the schools to present an action-packed 30 minute theatre show called 'Oops! Forgotten Something?!' on the true meaning of Christmas. The show uses puppets, drama, music and magic to explain why Jesus came and to remind us that He is the reason why we celebrate Christmas.
