Sparks is an Awana club designed for boys and
girls, grades Kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd. At ARBC, we have
three individual Sparks Clubs.
-
Sparks K for kids in Kindergarten
-
Sparks 1 for kids in the First Grade
-
Sparks 2 for kids in the Second Grade.
Sparks includes a fun firefly character
named Sparky, a red vest with accompanying awards for "Sparkies"
to wear, and a nature motif.
The Sparks curriculum is designed to take these boys and girls 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. There are three handbooks for Sparks, Skipper,
Hiker, and Climber. Each handbook communicates spiritual
truths through memory verse drills, crafts, activities, and review
of key doctrines, Bible facts and verses. The three
handbooks feature:
-
Basic truths about God, Jesus, salvation and the
Bible
-
An increased emphasis on Scripture memory over the
preschool materials
-
Clear and consistent presentation of the gospel
message
All Sparks begin in the first book and
may complete a book for each school year.
Example: Kindergartners may complete only the
Skipper book in their first year. If a child does not come
as a Kindergartner, but enters Awana as a first grader, they may
complete both the Skipper book and the Hiker book. A
beginning third grader may complete all three books in one year if
they are extremely motivated. For children who complete
their book early in the year, a workbook is available for them to
continue working on to earn a workbook pin.
Sparks club meetings combine learning with fun
to create an atmosphere of irresistible excitement for churched
and un-churched kids alike. Club meetings are divided into
three segments:
-
Bible teaching, worship, award presentations and
the gospel message
-
Small group interaction and completion of
Bible-based lessons
-
Age-appropriate games on the Awana game circle
The Sparks clubs meet from 5:00-7:00 pm on
Sunday. Location:
Sparks K - Begin in Big Room of Children's Bldg.
