Held on Sunday evenings, September 17, 2023 through May 19, 2024, for children 3 years of age through 12th grade, our AWANA groups are challenged to memorize God’s Word by loving teachers who encourage the children & teens to do all they can to hide it in their hearts.
Along with the active and fun weekly meetings, there is also our exciting Grand Prix car-building-and-racing event which takes place for families to participate in every Spring.

Greetings from Our AWANA Director
We are currently in the middle of our 2023-2024 AWANA year, having started this Sunday, September 17. This year we are again implementing a *ROBOCALL* system to help keep our AWANA families updated. We will be using this system to communicate with our families during the inclement weather season, and it will be used to inform families of AWANA closures & other key AWANA events. We would like to encourage you to sign up for this notification.

Our AWANA Program
Welcome to Upper Cross Roads AWANA Program. We just wanted to take time out to thank you for your interest in sending your child to participate in the AWANA ministry at Upper Cross Roads. We are pleased to have the opportunity to participate in your child’s Christian growth.
Because we believe so strongly in teaching your child the Word of God, we take extra time each week in preparing the lesson, reading the Bible, and other articles in order to provide our clubbers with the proper leadership. It is also important that you, as parents, help them to adequately prepare for their weekly meeting both mentally and spiritually. This includes reminding them that they need to be on their best behavior while in the Lord’s house. Please ensure that your child comes to the meeting on time, in uniform, with their Bible and handbook, and properly prepared for handbook time. This last item is extremely important. Each week, the clubber is expected to memorize certain Bible verse and should come to the meeting prepared to recite them.
All meetings will be held on Sunday evenings starting promptly at 6:00 P.M. and ending at 7:20 P.M. Please be ready to pick up your child at 7:20 P.M. so that your child may be promptly dismissed so that our staff can expedite cleanup activities and get home to their families. Please do not leave your child unattended after pick up. Due to safety concerns in the parking lots, AWANA children must be accompanied by their driver when outdoors after dismissal, and they may not play or loiter in the parking lot areas.
