AWANA's IS DONE FOR THE 2007-2008 YEAR!
We are looking forward to seeing everyone again next year! |
A.W.A.N.A. is an international,
Bible based ministry whose goal is to reach boys and girls with the gospel of
Christ and train them to serve Him. A.W.A.N.A. at Portola
Station meets
Wednesday Nights from 6:30 - 8:15 PM during the school year. It is the prayer of all the AWANA staff that each
child is loved and appreciated at AWANA. We want every child to know the love of
God and to respond to the grace of God for salvation. We want the kids to
remember their years in AWANA as lots of fun, as well as a place to grow
spiritually.
We Minister to Different Age Groups

Weekly Meeting
Each night the clubbers are involved in:
Game Time: an exciting time of active
games played in four teams around a special game circle. Each child must come to
the AWANA office to complete and sign a medical release form to participate in
the games.
Council Time: the children participate in
a Bible lesson using music, drama, stories, video, discussion, and mini-sermons
that relate to everyday life.
Handbook Time: each child works on a
handbook in a small group setting. The handbooks help children memorize verses,
learn how to become Christians, and how to live the Christian life at home,
school, and play.
Leadership - Each week the AWANA program is directed by a team
of over 40 dedicated adults that love kids.
AWANA store - each week "clubbers"
may earn "AWANA Bucks" (play money) to buy items out of our AWANA store.
