Let the one who boasts boast about this: that they have the understanding to know me, that I am the LORD, who exercises kindness, justice and righteousness on earth, for in these I delight,” declares the LORD. – Jeremiah 9:24

Awana Clubs
What Is Awana?
Awana is a weekly program for kids to learn the Bible, grow in their faith, and have a blast doing it! Awana stands for “Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed,” as taken from 2 Timothy 2:15. Each week, kids from preschool through 5th grade will meet and have lessons, learn verses, and play games. The groups are broken up into Cubbies (preschool), Sparks (K-2), and T&T (3-5).
Is it hard to get home and here by 6pm?
Don’t worry! We have you covered. We will be offering a weekly meal for you and your kids, so you don’t have to stress over dinner on Wednesdays (donations are accepted).
What else do you do at Awana?
Throughout the year, we will have lots of other fun things to do. We will have theme nights, Awana store where kids can purchase prizes, and Grand Prix, which is similar to a pinewood derby.
How do we sign up for Awana?
We will have pre-registration nights on August 19th and 26th from 6-7pm. You can also register on September 2nd (our first official night), or by contacting the church office.
If you have any additional questions, please contact Pastor Josh Taylor at 513-598-6734 x118 or via email at joshtaylor@goffc.org.
Children's Church
Toddlers stay in the Toddlers room and Preschool children stay in the rainbow room throughout the service; Kindergarten through 5th grade will be dismissed to children’s church right before the sermon. Elementary children are using the curriculum Grow, Proclaim, Serve.
Grow, Proclaim, Serve uses age-appropriate lessons, opening with a visit to Leaper’s Pointe via DVD, where the citizens of this little town illustrate the Bible message. In K–5th children’s church, children will be divided into two age groups to explore the lesson in more detail. Resource Pak materials provide posters, storytelling tools, and games that engage the children with each other and that emphasize faith learning, among other things. Bible Brain Paks for older elementary students provide age-appropriate puzzles to challenge children and help develop the lesson’s relevance to the child.
The Grow, Proclaim, Serve website (growproclaimserve.com) offers games for kids, articles that encourage churches and parents, and more.
If you have questions about the Grow, Proclaim Serve curriculum, contact Cheryl Ferguson at 598-8109 or wordweavers@fuse.net.
