A Typical Club Night

How Discipleship Works

Every Thursday evening is broken down into three dynamic segments designed to maximize engagement, build lasting mentorships, and deepen your child's understanding of Scripture.

Game Time

Every week, kids enjoy high-energy games that get them moving and laughing. As they play alongside friends and caring leaders, they develop teamwork, sportsmanship, confidence, and meaningful connections.

Handbook Time

Kids meet in small groups with dedicated mentors to recite memorized Scripture verses, discuss biblical truths, and track their progress through age-appropriate handbooks.

Large Group Time

Kids gather together for engaging worship, interactive Bible lessons, awards recognition, and practical life applications.

Parent & Family Stories

What Families Are Saying

"Awana has been such a blessing to our family this year—truly more than I think words can fully capture. Watching our children be poured into week after week with so much love, patience, and intentionality has meant everything to us. What stands out the most is the heart behind what you all do."

— The Benedict Family

"Cubbies is more than entertainment; it is a training ground for messengers of light who will be sustained by God's word in all seasons of life. Thanks to your dedication, Ava not only wants to read the Bible daily but is also deeply moved to share the gospel and pray for others."

— The Coronado Family

"Kristopher shared how much he 'loves studying the Bible at Awana and how thankful he is for great leadership. The Bible is the best thing ever.'"

Favorite Verse: "Be kind to one another..." — Ephesians 4:32
