AWANA

Just to let you know, my church, Trinity Baptist Church does the AWANA (Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed)Club program. It is a Scripture memory club where children earn vests and patches and 'jewels' to put on those vests for different types of participation in the program. (I am known as 'The Patch Lady' since I sew on all the patches that are earned.)

Our start-up meeting is this coming Wednesday night, September 8th, from 6:00-7:30pm. Trinity is located at the corners of Elm and Washington.

For the 1st meeting, parents are requested to stay and walk through with the children so they can learn what is expected of the children and how to help.

The age ranges is 2 years old to 4th grade. Puggles is for 2-3 year olds. Cubbies is for 4-5 year olds. Sparks is for Kindergarten through Second Grade. Truth in Training (TnT) is for Third through Fourth Grade.

We also have a program for 5th-6th graders called Cross Training which is not a part of the AWANA program but is still good and a youth group for 7th-12th graders called Metamorpho.

There is a $15 yearly dues fee which can be paid in 1 lump sum or by bringing .50/week. Children earn points for bringing their dues, Bibles, handbooks, vests, Sunday School attendance, and more. They get to spend points earned at a quarterly AWANA store, which has toy prizes.

It's a great program and you're welcome to participate if you would like to.
