AWANA

What is it?

AWANA is our Wednesday discipleship program for children ages three to entering sixth-grade which integrates fun with a more in-depth study of the Bible. Children will learn to memorize key Bible verses that will forever be hidden in their hearts.

Our club night also features an energetic game time as well as an engaging council time where a weekly group lesson is presented. Through small group interaction, our children will experience a strength and comfort in building community through well-developed peer and leader relationships.

AWANA stands for Approved Workmen Are Not Afraid derived from 2 Timothy 2:15. Our club is open to the community and serves children from many churches.
