WHAT IS AWANA?

Awana is a children & youth ministry committed to “reaching boys and girls with the gospel of Christ and training them to serve Him.”

WHAT HAPPENS IN AWANA?

Each week, the boys and girls get together along with adult and teen leaders to play games, memorize Bible verses, and listen to Bible stories. From age 2 through 6th grade children have “fun” while being taught the Word of God.

WHAT CAN PARENTS DO?

Parents, you can help your children achieve! You are busy, we know, but if you want to help your child be successful in Awana, he/she needs to be in Awana whenever possible. Encourage and help your child to spend, at least, 10 minutes a day preparing for Awana by working in the handbook.

WHAT ABOUT SUNDAY SCHOOL AWARDS?

Awana includes awards for attending Sunday School. We give credit for attendance at any church. But if you do not have a home church, you and your family are welcomed at Grace Baptist Church. Sunday School….9:30 a.m. Worship Service …10:30 a.m.

SAFETY RULES

For the safety and enjoyment of all who attend, we ask that you and your children follow the following rules. We take the safety of your children very seriously.

**Wear gym shoes, long pants & uniform for activities in the gym. If you do not have a uniform, a modest shirt will do.

**Upon arrival: Hang up your coat, check in, pay dues, and then go to the gym. Walk quietly and orderly between sessions.

**Stay with your Club. Clubbers can be given restroom privileges by leaders – preferably during Handbook Time.

**Stop all talking and activity at the 5 – count.

Parents Responsibilities: We ask parents to pick up their children inside or arrange to meet them at the door. Children should not be in the parking lot, if they are unattended.

Parents will be asked to complete the Church Activity Permit and Medical Release Form, so that we can better serve your child. There are nurses and hall monitors in attendance to help in case of emergency.

Thank You!
