- Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.
- 2 Timothy 2:15
Wonder Lake Bible Church is blessed to once again provide an opportunity for children to participate in the Awana program. Awana is an international program that ministers to children and their families with Bible-based teachings and activities. Through games, study, and devotion time children learn about the Scriptures and strengthen their personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Meetings take place Wednesday nights from September through April. We have activities for children in Preschool through Eighth grade:
- Cubbies - Preschool
- Sparks - K through 2nd grade
- Truth & Training (T&T) - 3rd grade through 6th grade
- Trek - 7th and 8th grade
What to Expect
Awana takes place every Wednesday night from 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM. Each meeting is divided into three activites:
- Game Time
- Awana games are fun and unique. Children split off into teams and compete against each other in age-appropriate competition. Kids enjoy this part of Awana week after week, and at the same time they learn the value of a positive attitude and good sportsmanship.
- Book Time
- Clubbers work on their handbooks. Handbooks present the Gospel to children in a way that is easy for them to understand. Each section covers an important topic geared toward their spiritual growth. We encourage you to spend some time with your clubber throughout the week, helping them with their work. Just 3-5 minutes a day makes a huge difference!
- Devotion time
- For devotion time, we have a short devotional lesson and sometimes sing a few songs. Awards for that night are also handed out to clubbers.
One team each week wins an award for points earned throughout that club night.
What else should I know?
Throughout the year we will send home flyers to notify you of upcoming events or theme nights.
Dues are fifty cents a week, which goes to defray the costs of awards. The only other costs are for a handbook and a uniform shirt if desired. If you forget dues or cannot afford the book or shirt, please still bring your child. We want them to come and enjoy the club. Wonder Lake Bible Church does sponsor and support this ministry.
Also, if the weather is bad and we need to cancel club, there will be a message on the church answering machine (815 728-0422). In general, if schools are closed in the area club will also be canceled.
