AWANA MINISTRY HOSTED BY FAIRVIEW HEIGHTS BAPTIST CHURCH
Our Awana ministry, on campus here at Del Rey Church, is currently on hold due to volunteer demands, especially following the impact of COVID-19. While we had to discontinue the program for a season, we have been blessed with an invitation to join the club at our sister church, Fairview Heights Baptist on their campus in Inglewood. You’re warmly invited to join us there. We’d love for your children to stay connected and growing in God’s Word.

We are prayerfully seeking the right time and team to relaunch it in the future. If you are interested in helping us bring Awana back to our church, please contact us—we would love to hear from you.
VISION FOR AWANA IN THE FUTURE
AWANA is a wonderful Bible club for children that is offered at DRC on Friday Nights (6:30-8:30 PM) for children in Pre-K through 6th grade. This night is all about helping families in our church and community as they raise their children to know, love and enjoy God.
AWANA is a program that many churches around the world participate in--more than 12,000 churches in our country and over 10,000 churches in 109 other countries for an estimate of 1.5 million kids ages 2 to 18 participate in AWANA each week. At Del Rey Church we count it a privilege to offer this program to families in our church and community.
The founders of AWANA derived the name from the first letters of "Approved workmen are not ashamed" as taken from 2 Timothy 2:15 of the Bible. As a ministry leader for 60 years, AWANA is making an impact on kids into adulthood. A recent national survey found AWANA to be as important to our alumni's spiritual foundation as all other church activities combined. Tragically, around 75% of youths raised in churches today will walk away from the Christian faith in college. Thankfully, among alumni who participated in AWANA in churches for at least six years, 92.7 percent still attend church at least weekly as adults! The surveys have shown that consistent, long-term participation in AWANA – accompanied by spiritual training from parents – reaps long-lasting results.
VOLUNTEER WITH US
The last couple of years we've had 75+ kids register with us! To make each night a success we need a lot of help. If you're interested in learning more about serving with our AWANA Program email erika@delreychurch.com
