This year was Abi's second year of Cubbies. She did so much better this year than last. She was able to say all the verses on time and finish her whole book. She is able to pronounce words more clearly now, and can often say the verses after only a couple days of practice. She earned the Cubbie bear doll for finishing both Cubbie books over 2 years.
Andrew finished his 2nd year of Sparks. He breezed through his book, as well, and then did the review book which goes through the whole book a 2nd time! He also memorized the books of both the Old & New Testament. He is great at memorizing and gets excited about going to AWANA every week.
Leah finished her first year in T&T and earned the Alpha Award for finishing her book. Her verses were much more challenging this year. Although she usually only had one or two each week, they were usually longer verses or more difficult. She also had work each day to complete, finding things in her Bible, reading & answering questions in order to apply what she's learning in the verses. It has been great for her as she's established a daily quiet time and is growing so much in her faith! She stood up in front of all the people at the end-of the year ceremony and told all about what she's been learning-- a feat most adults would be uncomfortable doing.
Here are a few shots of our little AWANA group from the year. We're not a huge club, but the kids are all such great friends and love spending time together. They are all faithful to come each week and work so hard on their verses. I am so thankful my kids have these friends to grow up with.
