WANAJAM

WANAJAM is COS's Tuesday night program for 5th and 6th graders! Club runs from 6:00-8:00 PM and is full of fun for guys and girls alike, including Handbook Time, Game Time, and Bible Time!

Evening Schedule

Each night is broken down into three segments (but not necessarily in this order):

    • Handbook Time - Children work in small groups (boys and girls separate) with a leader to memorize Bible verses and do other fun handbook activities.
    • Interactive Bible Lesson - An AWANA leader gathers all the children together for an interesting and thought-provoking Bible lesson.
    • Game Time - Leaders and kids break up into four teams and head down to the COS Gym to play really fun games with balloons, bean bags, parachutes, and just about anything else they can get their hands on!

        Supplies

        Each child is asked to purchase a handbook at the beginning of the year to work on in Handbook Time. Those in the T&T and WANAJAM clubs focus on working through four handbooks that answer such questions as "Who Is God?", "Why Do We Have the Bible?", "Who Is Jesus?" and other foundational biblical truths and principles. Each newcomer starts on Book 1 for their age level.

        Some children finish a handbook within a year, some do not. If a child completes his/her handbook before the end of the year, he/she purchases the next level. The goal is for each child to finish all  books for his/her age group, but this is not a requirement.

        Handbooks cost $8-$9 each and can be purchased from the cashier on Tuesday club nights after 6:10 pm on the 2nd floor of Building C. Please bring cash or check.

        Uniforms

        Children are encouraged to wear their AWANA uniform each week:

        • WANAJAM (5th-6th) wears a t-shirt - Cost: $13 (YM/YL) or $14 (AS/AM/AL)

        You can order (and pay for) your child's uniform when registering.  Circle his/her vest or t-shirt size and include payment for the uniform along with your registration fee(s).

        You may also purchase your child's uniform from the cashier (cash/check only) on Tuesday club nights after 6:10 pm on the second floor of Building C.
