The 3rd Night

I think things are starting to settle down into a norm as we work through our third club meeting of this season.  We still have some room left, especially in the grades 3 to 6 range, so if you know of anyone who would like to try out our Awana club, send them our way.  We allow new people to come as visitors for up to 2 club nights before they need to register, so they can try it out and see if they like it with no commitments.

Where is our club, anyway?  We meet most Friday nights at 7:00pm (come at 6:40 to sign in) at the Bible Baptist Church, 765 Sask. Ave West, Portage, MB.


What do we do?  There are 3 parts of an Awana Club night. Handbook time is where you work through your own handbook on various sections (learning Bible verses and reading over stories) with your Leader.

In game time,  you play with other kids your age in games such as Prisoner's Base, Knock-It-Down, relay races, Bombardment, Soccer Baseball, Towel Dodge, floor hockey and many others.

We end each club night with Council Time, where we do some songs, we have a council time message about God, and award Clubbers who have earned awards for completing sections in their books.

Keep in mind, we won't have Awana on Nov.11th.

First Awana Night of 2011-2012

This Friday, October 14th is our first Awana of the new season.  If you haven't registered, you can still do so on this or any Awana night, but please come a bit early so we have time to finish the paperwork.

Door should open at 6:40pm.

We have a new sign-in table at the bottom of the stairs; go to the table when you arrive to sign in.  At this table you can earn a share if you've done 4 out of 5 of the attendance based tasks (pay your dues, wear your uniform, bring your handbook, attend our Sunday School and bring your Bible).

The sign-in table closes at 6:55; if you arrive after that, go to the Secretary to sign in; but you can only win shares if you get to club on time and sign in at the table before 6:55.

See you at club!
