Hey all, Pastor Jon here:

I can’t believe it’s September already! Where has 2017 gone? School has started, sports are in full swing, and fall is knocking at our doorstep. This can only mean one thing for our church…AWANA is right around the corner! I hope you are all as excited as I am to get this new year under way. Since I have been back from vacation, Julia and I have been working hard so we can be prepared to have another great year. We have finalized the schedule, and are ironing out the fine details while finishing our new curriculum for this year. There is a lot do and we could really use your help!

We need two things from you:

First, we need you to ask yourself and pray to see if God might be calling you to serve in AWANA this year. It is a big commitment and sacrifice to give up one night a week to come and spend time serving children, but I promise that it is completely worth it. If you do think God is calling you to serve this year, then please sign up via our bulletin board once it’s posted.

The second thing we need you to do, is spread the word about AWANA! No commitment needed for this one, just a loud mouth 😉 We have less than one month before AWANA starts. Our first night of AWANA is Wednesday, Oct 4. AWANA is for children age 3 (by September 1, 2017) through 6th grade and runs from 6:30 to 8:00 pm (registration begins at 6:15 pm).

We included the AWANA calendar at the bottom, and if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me (Pastor Jon) at jroc3497@gmail.com or call me at 319-653-2400. We hope to see you there!!!
