What is Awana and how does it make a difference in the lives of kids?

Awana focuses on Scripture memorization. In fact, Awana is the world’s largest Scripture memory program for children and youth. But it doesn’t stop at just rote memorization. Student manuals and teachers’ resources for each age level help kids understand and apply the truths of Scripture to their lives. An atmosphere of fun and excitement will keep kids coming back week after week, often with friends in tow.

When does Awana at First Baptist Church meet?

Awana club meets Wednesday nights from 6:30PM to 8:00PM starting September going through April.

So what's in our programs?

The goal of a child’s journey through Awana is to produce a young person who understands God’s Word and applies that knowledge to their lives. The spiritual needs of kids in each stage of their life is the focus we maintain while staying true to the Word of God.
