We love Awana! Ever since Andrew was three years old he has participated in the Awana program. Matthew started a little early at 2 years old and this was Emery's first year as a three year old. The kids LOVE it. They look forward to each Wednesday night when they have Awana. I jokingly call it Christian boy scouts but really it's a Christian club for boys and girls that focuses on Scripture memory and Bible teaching. Of course they make it fun with theme nights and games too. Tonight was our closing awards ceremony. Each of the kids received an award for memorizing Bible verses. I am especially proud of Andrew because he started memorizing his verse entirely on his own for the first time towards the end of this year now that he is able to read and we have taught him how to memorize verses. Here are some highlights from the evening:
Andrew receiving his plaque for completing 3 years in the Sparks program. He was excited to get this because his cousins Ethan and Allison also have this award and he saw it at their house when we were in California in February.
Matthew receiving his award for completing the Cubbies program. Next year he will move up to the next level, which is the one Andrew just completed. Apparently shaking dad's hand was not very exciting for him and he just wanted to go and get his award.
Each club sang their theme song for the audience. This was the youngest group called "Cubbies." Matt and Emery were both a part of this group this year.
