| The Awana club for children in
kindergarten through second grade builds on the material taught in
our preschool club. The aim of the curriculum is to take
youngsters a step deeper into God’s Word while giving unsaved
boys and girls regular opportunities to hear the gospel and come
to faith in Jesus Christ. After being immersed in solid
foundational teaching at the preschool level, boys and girls
frequently come to an understanding of their need to trust Christ
as their personal Savior while in Sparks.
Immersing kids in God’s Word
The Sparks program is firmly grounded in Scripture. The three
handbooks feature:
* Basic truths about God, Jesus Christ, salvation
and the Bible
* An increased emphasis on Scripture memory over our preschool
materials. In three years, a child will learn and review 68
verses, many of which cover salvation and key Christian doctrine
* Clear and consistent presentation of the gospel message
Fun learning = results
Sparks club meetings combine learning with fun to create an
atmosphere of irresistible excitement for churched and unchurched
kids alike. Club meetings are divided into three segments:
* Bible teaching, worship, award presentations
and the gospel message
* Small group interaction and completion of Bible-based lessons
* Age-appropriate games on the Awana game circle
Along the way, Sparky, the friendly firefly,
encourages boys and girls to learn verses and complete assignments
