AWANA AWARDS

AWANA- Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed
2 Timothy 2:15
"Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."
Emily has completed a year of Cubbies, 3 years of Sparks, and her first year of Truth and Training totalling 237 verses not including the extra workbooks and Silver sections she has completed.
Rebecca has completed 2 years (3 books) of Sparks, 3 years of T & T, and her first year of Trek totalling 579 verses not including all the workbooks, Silver and Gold sections, or the Trek Challenges that she has completed.
I AM AMAZED!

 Emily is the third from the left, looking sweet as always, with some of her T & T class of girls.
 Emily earned her first book award, a certificate and a ribbon for clubber of the second quarter.  Way to go Emily!
 Here's Rebecca in the pink with her Trek class of 6-8th graders. 

 Rebecca completed all of the Trek Challenges, a challenge in deed!  It was an accomplishment, the first time anyone in our church has completed it, so I was told by the director.
She had a great year, made better by having wonderful leaders!


 These two won the Timothy Award, the coolest award Rebecca has ever received.  A lot of work goes into earning these awards.  You have to have completed four books since the third grade and have to have completed or be near completion of sixth grade.  They both had huge grins over how cool this award is.
The girls were so proud of themselves and had every right to be.  It is a lot of hard work, dedication, studying and in Emily's case, a horrible, vengeful teacher who tried to pull her down at every opportunity.  Emily rose up and took it with all of her might.  I am so proud of Emily for the way she handled this leader for an entire school year, maybe more so than the amount of scripture hid in her heart.  Her actions showed what is in her heart, and for that, I am honored to be her mother.
