AWANA:
Begins September 8; ages 3 years ( as of September) thru 6th grade. This is a time of games, fun, music and learning that focuses on the basic doctrines of Christianity. Kids work through handbooks and earn awards, but more importantly, they build a storehouse of understanding and knowledge that will prepare them for life. Every Wednesday night 6:30 - 8:00 p.m.
AWANA stands for "Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed" (2 Timothy 2:15)
Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
AWANA is a children's ministry that helps parents raise their children to know, love, and serve Jesus Christ. Our number one priority is to share our Heavenly Father's love with children and point them to Heaven by helping them to understand God's Word, the Good News of Jesus Christ, and to memorize Scripture as a foundation for their life, while enjoying a fun and exciting evening.
