But Jesus called the children to him and said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. Luke 18:16 (NIV)
Whoever welcomes one of these little children in my name welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me does not welcome me but the one who sent me. Mark 9:37 (NIV)
And he took the children in his arms, put his hands on them and blessed them… Mark 10:16 (NIV)
Jesus thinks kids are pretty important!
AWANA presents an opportunity for each child to grow – to grow spiritually as they learn to know and love Jesus; to grow personally as they learn self-worth; and to grow socially as they learn to love others.
On Wednesday nights from August 24 through April, Children’s Ministry rules! Almost 150 clubbers and leaders converge on our campus for AWANA Bible Club 6:15 p.m. until 8:00 p.m..
The AWANA club is designed for children 3 years old to 6th grade. The club is divided into three groups: Cubbies (Pre-schoolers ages: 3-4 years old & potty trained), Sparks (Kindergarten through 2nd grade) and T & T (3rd – 6th grade).
Club begins at 6:15 p.m. on Wednesday evenings with a joint Flag Ceremony. Throughout the evening clubbers will rotate through variety of activities that may include games, singing, handbook time, and lesson time.
Also take advantage of Wednesday Dinner for a Dollar. Each week during the AWANA season, dinner is available for everyone for $1 in our Fellowship Hall. Come anytime between 5-6 p.m.
