Please do not park in the Handicap parking places unless you are handicapped.  We have had a problem with unloading some of our handicapped children for Awana.  Please help us with this matter.  Thank you!

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:

  1. Bible teaching, worship, award presentations and the gospel message

  2. Small group interaction and completion of Bible-based lessons

  3. Age-appropriate games on the Awana game circle

The Sparks clubs meet from 5:00-7:00 pm on Sunday.
