Sparks
This Month's Sparks Newsletter
The Sparks program is for boys & girls from Kindergarten thru 2nd Grade.
Club meetings are divided into three parts. During Game Time, Sparkies participate in fun, entertaining games played on the AWANA Game Circle.
During Green Meadow Time, Sparkies gather for their age appropriate Bible lesson.
During Handbook Time, clubbers recite Bible verses from memory, complete handbook sections, and earn awards.
Sparky, the friendly firefly encourages the children to learn verses and complete assignments throughout 3 handbooks. The aim of each of the handbooks is to take children 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.
The Sparks program is firmly grounded in Scripture. The three handbooks feature:
- Basic truths about God, Jesus Christ, salvation and the Bible
- Clear and consistent presentation of the gospel message
- An increased emphasis on Scripture memory over the Cubbies program. In three years, a child will learn and review 68 verses.
Sparks club lays an excellent foundation for the next level of Awana clubs. The Sparks become accustomed to memorizing Bible verses, passing sections, playing Awana games, and seriously considering a portion of God's Word each week.
