Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed

Wednesday Evenings 6:30-8:00pm, for kids 3 years – 6th Grade
Cubbies
For kids 3 (by Sept. 15th) thru Preschool
The
Awana club for preschoolers is built on two premises: Young children
can and should receive spiritual training, and home is the primary place
for spiritual training. While at club meetings, Cubbies come for a time
of fun, with a purpose...to reach and train kids for Jesus Christ.
Bible-centered handbooks and club activities help your children begin a
solid understanding of the basics of Christianity at an early age.
Sparks
For kids Kindergarten through 2nd Grade
The
Awana club for children in kindergarten through second grade builds on
the material taught in our preschool club. The aim of the curriculum is
to take youngsters a step deeper into God's Word while giving unsaved
boys and girls regular opportunities to hear the gospel and come to
faith in Jesus Christ. After being immersed in solid foundational
teaching at the preschool level, boys and girls frequently come to an
understanding of their need to trust Christ as their personal Savior

Truth
& Training
For kids 3rd - 6th grade
The name Truth & Training reflects the passion of Awana to teach third-
through sixth-grade boys and girls the truth of God’s Word and to train
them to follow Christ in their daily lives. Our goal is that many of
today’s young people will become tomorrow’s church leaders. T&T is the
program that trains the leaders of tomorrow — today.

What is Awana?
- Awana is a Wednesday evening Bible-centered program based on scripture memory for children age 3 years through 6th grade that focuses on learning God’s Word and the Gospels in a fun atmosphere. Each week, Awana provides consistent, positive teaching and training that stresses strong moral and spiritual values. Our clubbers learn about the reality of God and the truth of the Bible.
- Awana is a parent-driven ministry that shapes your child through the limitless power of God’s Word. Awana staff and trained leaders, together with parents, create a spiritually nurturing environment to help kids grow in their knowledge of Scripture and their walk of faith.
Awana meets on Wednesday evenings from 6:30 PM – 8:00 PM. See our schedule of events for the 2009-2010 year
An Awana Night
Awana meetings will be a time filled with energy, fellowship and spiritual growth. Each of our children’s clubs has its own unique meeting format, but in general Awana meetings are 90 minutes and feature three main segments: Game Time, Council Time, Handbook Time
Game Time is comprised of exciting circle games exclusive to a that are a popular draw for children. Council Time is a large-group setting consisting of praise and worship, Bible teaching, awards, announcements and presentation of the gospel. Handbook Time provides small-group interaction, recitation of Scripture that kids learned during the week, friendship building and opportunities for leaders to mentor children and help them understand the Bible verses they memorize.

A note to parents…
Week by week, your children will grow spiritually as they learn Bible verses. Experience shows that encouragement from a parent will make a big difference in the spiritual growth of your children. Please set aside time each week to help your children study their workbooks. See our Awana Parent Guide for more information about each club and our Awana Guidelines.
