AWANA Ministries

We offer children a welcoming environment to meet with others who are growing in the christian faith.

The 2020-2021 Season

We are excited to be able to continue offering Wednesday night programming in person at the church! COVID has stopped or cancelled so many activities in our lives so coming back to church Wednesdays will be amazing. We will continue to use AWANA curriculum on Wednesday nights, but we will be changing how our time together looks.

Wednesday night AWANA is more family focused this year. We start the night with offering supper where families will sit together at a table. After the meal, each family will receive a packet to go through together as a family. Our hope is that these packets will be fun and engaging for the whole family and help each family grow together in Christ.

We understand that some families with pre existing conditions may not feel comfortable coming to community supper inside the church. Some families may have both parents working Wednesday evenings. Communication with our AWANA commander will be key. These family packets will be available for you to drive up, pick up, and go home to work on together. In some cases, we may be able to ask another family to "adopt" a child for the evening.

Awana Clubs

Awana Cubbies

Preschoolers can hardly wait for their next Cubbies club meeting. Whether it's the fun puppets, the exciting games or all their Cubbies friends, they simply love it. At Story Time each week, preschoolers learn about God – the greatness of His love and His Word – and about His Son, Jesus Christ, the promised Savior. Non-competitive games build excitement and reinforce Story Time lesson themes.
