AWANA Awards
As the school year comes to an end so does the girl's AWANA clubs. Every Wednesday the girls go to church for fun, games, stories and lessons. They learn all about the Bible and what the Word says and everyweek they are responsible for reciting at least one verse from memory to their AWANA leaders. As they say more and more verses they get little awards to show off. They both wear vests to their classes and the awards get put on them to be displayed. Abbi gets little patches that I have to sew on and Bresa gets little jewels that fit into her larger pins that she wears on the vest. This was both of the girls second year and Abbi's last year of Cubbies. Next year she will move up to Bresa's class, Sparks, for three more years before moving to T&T. As the classes progress there are more and more verses to learn and more in depth stories. There is also more responsibility and maturity expected from the students. The girls love AWANA and look forward to going each week. Since the year was wrapping up they end with a big ceremony where the kids in each class sing a song or two and then are awarded their certificates and ribbons for all of their accomplishments. This year Bresa had to stand up on the stage and recite 1 Thessal-
onians 5:17-18 into the mic all by herself and she did awesome!! I didn't know she was going to do that and I got tears in my eyes when she was speaking. Daddy and I cheered very loudly for her, we are so proud of our big girl! I asked her if she was nervous but she said she, "was not, not even a little." We figured as much. Both of the girls did a great job and we are so very proud of both of them! It is such a blessing to see their desire to learn and grow with God, we are very excited to see the ladies they will become someday, but for now they can stay our little girls.
