OUR COMMUNITY

THE AWANA CLUBS
Cubbies is a two-year preschool program which celebrates the spiritual potential of preschoolers (3- to 5- year-olds) by helping them develop respect for God, His Son and His Word.
Sparks is a three-year program for K, 1st, and 2nd graders. The Sparks club communicates spiritual truths through verse memorization, crafts, review of key doctrine, and Bible facts, building a foundation of wisdom for knowing Christ.
T&T (Truth & Training) is a four-year program for 3rd-6th graders. The club focuses on understanding God's Word and focusing on the truths found within the scriptures as well as how to apply those truths to their lives.
Trek is a three-year program for 7th-9th graders and surveys the New Testament scriptures. The curriculum challenges students to wrestle with the three most important questions they’re asking in middle school: Who am I? Why am I here? Who’s with me? By allowing students to dive deep into the Scriptures and answer these questions for themselves we allow them to own their faith and discover what they actually believe.
Journey is a four-year program for 9th-12th graders. Journey establishes high school students as lifelong disciples through a deep study of God's Word, mobilizing them to live with godly perspective and evident faith. New Testament books like Romans, Galatians, and Ephesians are studied, while learning what it means to be true disciples of Jesus, how to advocate for the truth, and how to be witnesses for the kingdom of God.
