Awana is the name of our youth ministry (age 3 - grade 6) which meets at the church building at 7:00 p.m. on the 1st & 3rd Fridays of each month from fall to spring. There are Bible classes & Bible memory work for the different grade levels, a time of singing, and games. Kids love it - and learn a lot too! We use the Awana materials but do not participate in Awana conferences.
Teen / Preteen groups have meetings and activities scheduled at various times and places. Our goal is to build up a Christian youth group, which would teach the Word, apply it to real life situations, and to prepare Christian youth for a life of service for the Lord Jesus Christ. The world our youth faces today is a dangerous place in every way. Our desire is to impress our young people with the awesome holiness and majesty of the Living God. Our prayer for each one is that they might be a witness and a testimony for Christ in the modern world, and that they learn to stand against evil (Eph.6:10-18). Paul’s prayer is that they be “blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom (they) shine as lights in the world.” (Phil.2:15) This is a tall task in today’s world, but our God is able.
Other Opportunitities for the Youth include a Vacation Bible School ministry during the summer. Sunday School classes are available for all ages. Ask for more details. We would love to be of help to your and your family!
