General Parent Information:
We are excited
about our AWANA clubs at Lake Norman Baptist Church for
children age 3 to 5th grade. We are
privileged to have your child as part of it! We
encourage you to work with your children to help them
learn the verses and projects in their handbooks.
During your home preparation with your child each week
you will help them memorize each Bible verse they are
working on so that your child can recite it to a AWANA
leader with no more than two helps.

How To Help Your Clubber
Week by week, your children will grow
spiritually as they learn Bible verses. Experience shows
that encouragement from a parent will make a big
difference in the spiritual growth of your children.
Please set aside time each week to help your children
study their workbooks. Each handbook describes how you
progress through the book and the rewards they will
receive.
Ø
Handbook achievement -
Clubbers need to bring their handbook each week. Please
encourage your clubber by listening to your clubber
practice their sections at home. The Cubbies work
together and learn the same verse each week, however the
other clubbers go at there on pace (some say one section
each night while others may say many sections).
However, the ultimate goal is for them to understand the
verse and put it to memory. There is no time during
club to memorize verses so please have them prepared
prior to club.
Ø
Attendance - to
accomplish the year’s objectives and complete the
handbook, your clubber must consistently attend club.
Ø
Discipline - We believe you
want your children to act respectfully in the Lord's
house. There is time for fun and games and a time for
quiet. We ask parents to encourage their children to
cooperate.
