Awana

Its over already? I have to say, the kids loved it SOOO much. And I'm truly impressed with the leadership. Thanks Leaders. Archer and Shelly were saying "I really miss Awana" before we were even out of the church parking lot. Every week they would get so excited and the easiest way for me to ensure bedrooms were clean and they were on their best behavior was the threat of missing Awana. "If you don't.... then no Awana tonight!"

They've learned so much. About God, about getting along with other kids, a little bit about independence, responsibility, making choices about what activities to do and what to give up. There were so many God-loving volunteers that pulled off this amazing year, and so many beautiful children that came week after week to hear more about the Lord. Then those little voices came home and spoke the Lord's words into their parents' hearts. "Mom, did you know..." What an amazing testimony to God's love and His children's willingness to serve one another.

Then we your people, the sheep of your pasture,

will praise you forever;
from generation to generation
we will proclaim your praise.
~ Psalm 79:13
