About Awana
Awana is an enthusiastic children’s program. At Springbrook we have
clubs for Kindergarten through 6th grade. It may appear to a casual
observer to be little more than an appealing game activity coupled with
a system of
motivational awards. However, the club program and teaching
materials have been perfected over 60 year of use to be a highly
successful Bible teaching tool. The purpose is succinctly declared in
the pledge to the Awana flag as that of reaching all children with the
gospel of Christ and also training them to serve the Savior. Our Awana
Club meets on Wednesday nights from 6:30pm to 8:30pm at the ministry
center.
Ministry Serving Opportunities
We need many more leaders to impact the lives of kids. Anyone who has a new life in Christ and a love for Him as well as a love for kids can be used in Awana. Teenagers and senior citizens; the physically active as well as the handicapped, new believers and those well-versed in the Bible – all will find a place of challenging service that produces spiritual gain by working in Awana. Becoming a spiritual role model, a friend and encourager in spiritual development and obedience are benefits. All leaders need commitment to give the Awana nights and leader meetings priority so there can be effective team work.
Needs in leadership are varied:
Commander
A commander places leaders, and supervises and directs the entire club operation.
Directors
The directors of each club group (Sparks, Truth and Training Boys and Girls) give specific oversight and direction to their particular group for effective club meetings.
Game Directors
The Game Directors plan and prepare exciting games which are essential for each club group.
Individual Leaders
The individual leaders develop an interest and lead relations with their small group.
Song Leaders and Bible Teachers
The Song Leaders and Bible Teachers are important in making God’s Word relevant and practical.
