The Awana staff is looking for a few people that would be willing to get the Fellowship Hall ready for Awana each Wednesday and then set it back up for Sunday. This entails taking tables down and arranging chairs. If you would be willing to help out in the way, please give April a call in the church office and she can give you further details.

Calling all girls and boys age 2 thru 6th grade! Come enjoy our AWANA club nights and join in the fun! We will meet each Wednesday now through the middle of March 2012. This year we will enjoy many more theme nights with activities that are related to the theme.

The most important part is the power your children will experience as they hide God’s Word in their hearts, learning to know, love, and serve our Savior!

Please call the church if you have any questions and also to obtain a registration form for your child! Visitors from your neighborhood, school, or community are welcome. Children work at their own pace to complete their activity books and then join together for game time! Please come and check it out!!

AWANA starts at 6 p.m. and finishes at 7:30!

Don’t miss it!

Thanks to all who came to celebrate our AWANA year with our leaders and students. We especially appreciate the dedication of the parents and grandparents who invested the energy and effort to bring these beloved young people week after week and our large group of committed volunteers who invested so much energy and faith into the goal of the AWANA club — which is to reach boys and girls with the Gospel of Christ and train them to serve Him! We have had a fruitful year, with many enthusiastic and active young people age 3 thru 6th grade, and it is a joy to see them grow in their knowledge of the WORD and love for the Lord.

Following is a list of those volunteers that helped throughout the year:

Piggies: Adam, Christina and Jan Boyer, Barb Leifheit
Cubbies: Pat Smith, Diane Meinert
Sparks: Sally Kuhlmeier, Vicki Thomas, April Zettle

Congratulations to our AWANA clubbers who participated in the area Sparks-A-Rama and AWANA Games in Machesney Park on April 5th. Our St. Paul Sparkies were combined with members from Grace Family Bible Church for the competition and won first place for their division. The T&T’ers were combined with members from Park Hills EF Church in Freeport, and their team placed second. The events were very exciting and competitive, with approximately 140 youth participating in the AWANA Games and 70 in the Sparks-A-Rama. The spectators were enthusiastic in cheering on their clubs, and the whole event was an excellent testimony to great sportsmanship, teamwork, and wonderful fun in a truly Christian atmosphere. There was a time set aside during both the morning and afternoon events for a Gospel presentation. We had a great time, learned a lot for future years, and really appreciated the way in which Grace Family and Park Hills welcomed and included our students to allow them to compete. Thank you to the many members who helped make this possible, and for the many who came to cheer us on! Thank you to our participants for making us proud by their behavior, attitudes and great effort!
