Description
AWANA is an international, non–denominational, Bible-centered youth program for 3-year-olds through high school students. The acronym AWANA comes from the first letters of the phrase, “Approved workmen are not ashamed” (2 Timothy 2:15). Our goal is to reach boys and girls with the Gospel of Christ and train them to serve Him.
Program Overview
Our Thursday evening program begins at 6:25 p.m. with a flag ceremony for all Sparks and T&T clubbers in the sanctuary. Cubbies and JV/Trek students start the night in their designated rooms.
The three main parts of the evening are Game Time, Handbook Time and Council Time
Game Time
Competition during Game Time is exciting! We encourage children to play fair, cheer for their team and persevere to finish the race. Please have children wear proper shoes for games: close-toed, non-slip, non-marking shoes for running. Directors assign clubbers to teams at the beginning of the year; however, they may reassign teams as needed.
Handbook Time
During Handbook Time, leaders listen to verses and help children understand and apply them. Clubbers should pass at least one section each week. We strongly encourage parental involvement.
Council Time
Council Time consists of music, announcements, testimonies, a Biblical message and award presentations. We give major awards for completing books at the Awards Program in May; however, club directors give smaller awards for completing sections in their books throughout the year.
Registration
Parents/guardians must submit a Registration/Medical Release Form for each clubber no later than their second week of attendance.
The registration fee alleviates some of the club expenses. We also encourage families to help by donating recyclable cans and bottles to the club.
Pick-up Procedure
For the protection of each child, parents need to pick up their children promptly at 8:30 p.m. from each child’s room. Siblings will not be allowed to pick up their younger brothers or sisters without prior written approval. Awana Permission Slips are available for parents to authorize the pick up of their children by anyone other than themselves.
