AWANA is not…
…a social club
…a place to babysit your kids
At AWANA, we hope to present God and His teachings in the Bible to your children in a fun and interesting way that is appropriate for their age.
But did you know AWANA really starts at home? AWANA co-workers only spend less than 2 hours a week with your children. The importance of God and the Bible will be impressed upon them mostly by your time with them.
However, AWANA can serve as a great supplement to the spiritual development of your children (or even introduction to Christ for those from non-Christian homes). To maximize the benefit of AWANA, consider the following:
-Taking interest in your child’s handbook and explaining the importance of memorizing Scripture
-Showing the importance of their spiritual development
-Showing the importance of AWANA by making sure
On a practical basis, you can help by:
-Arriving early or on time
-Making sure your child brings their uniform, handbook, and Bible
-Making sure your child is wearing tennis shoes for Games
-Working with your child during the week on their memory verses
-Talking to your child about what they learned that evening at AWANA
-Meet your child’s teacher
–
The spiritual development of your children is a big task, but hopefully with your help we can make it an exciting one!
