AWANA Girls

Miranda, Kathryn, Taylor, Courtney

Mom is an AWANA leader at their church for T&T girls (3rd - 6th grade). Every Wednesday she goes to church and listens to their verses, plays games, and encourages the girls. She had really enjoyed getting to know them and develop relationships with them. AWANA stands for Approved Workers are Not Ashamed and comes from 2 Timothy 2:15. They also have a sleepover every year in the spring that the girls are already talking about. It is a contest to see how late they can stay up.

Miranda's coming to AWANA last year is a cool story. She would go over to Courtney's house after school and one day her mom couldn't pick her up in time so she had to come AWANA. Her mom came to pick her up in the middle of it but she wanted to stay until the end. Miranda enjoyed it so much that she has come back ever since and this year she even goes to a different school but is still coming. I think AWANA is the only place she has heard the gospel and it is so encouraging to see her memorizing the word and praying! There are about 25 girls in the program. Mom is leader of the red team which averages 4-6 girls.
