AWANA Club
Our Mission
AWANA is an international children?s club for all qualified churches, designed for
children starting from age 3 up to high school. The mission of AWANA clubs is to reach
boys and girls with the gospel of Jesus Christ, and train them to serve Him.
Why the Bible?
We are living in a world in which our children are facing a lot of temptation, with
more difficult choices to make than ever before. AWANA is a Bible-based program with
the goal of establishing firm Biblical foundations, which will then provide direction
to the lives of children and help them make the right choices in life.
Our Clubs
In our church we are currently offering this program from September to the following
August for children from Preschool (aged 3) to Grade 6. Our AWANA is open for children
of both members and non-members of our church. The language of instruction is English.
Children and leaders in regular attendance must wear their AWANA uniforms to meetings
as a way to foster discipline and unity. Punctuality is also part of the Club?s rules.
-
Truth & Training Club: This is designed for children in Grade 3 to Grade 6.
-
Sparks Club: This is designed for children in regular kindergarten through second
grade.
-
Cubbies Club: This is a two-year preschool program designed for children age 3 to
4. (Children must reach the age of 3 by September, 08 to join Cubbies Club)
Our Program
There are three main sessions to each weekly meeting of AWANA: council/story time,
handbook time, and game time. Children are told stories which are biblically based
during Council/Story Time. Then in Handbook Time, children learn, memorize and apply
God?s Word and biblical knowledge using specially designed AWANA handbooks. During
Game Time, children and leaders are involved in fun games and play which allow them
to interact with each other further via cooperation, cheering, and physical activities.
Our Team
We have over 30 trained leaders and secretaries on our team, all committed to serving
children of AWANA each week and fostering fellowship amongst each other. In the past
year, the leader to child ratio has been close to 1:2. As a result, the individual
interaction between child and leader has been great, which is one of our strengths.
Time and Fees
AWANA Club meets at church from 4:15 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. every Saturday, with the exception
of major holidays such as Easter, Christmas, New Year, Chinese New Year and Spring
Break. An initial registration fee of $30 is charged for the FIRST child, and $15
for each additional child in the same family. While our facilities and equipment are
supplied by the church, we request each clubber to pay $1 in dues each week to help
cover the costs of awards, treats and special supplies.
Registration
Come register with the AWANA secretary during our weekly club meeting.
