SCHEDULE
Four segments provide start to finish excitement in every club meeting:
Opening Time: Kids meet in the gym at the beginning of each AWANA night to learn and sing songs about God and His grace. It’s a time to focus why we have AWANA, “to reach boys and girls with the Gospel of Christ and train them to serve Him.”
Handbook Time: Kids work one-on-one in small groups with a trained leader to recite memorized verses. Leaders talk with children to ensure they understand key Bible verses that teach them how to know and follow God. Awards are given in recognition to children who have completed sections in their handbooks.
Council Time: Each club comes together to hear an age-appropriate Bible story to learn about character traits that honor God.
Game Time: Children learn teamwork and sportsmanship in team competition in the AWANA Games Circle.
