MONROE — The Monroe Bible Church will be starting Awana on Wednesday, Sept. 18, which runs through April 2025. Awana is a worldwide Christian youth ministry that serves children 3-years-old through high school. 

Middle school and high school time is 5:15-6:15 p.m. Ages 3-years through sixth grade is from 6:15-7:45 p.m. 

Awana’s goal is to make resilient child disciples by having adult and student leaders committing to meaningful, intentional and consistent time to a group of children so that they may know who Jesus is and are known by a body of believers or belong, to place their faith in Jesus and apply the word of God or believe and so reproduce their own discipleship or become to that a third spiritual generation can lead and love like Jesus Christ. 

Those who want to learn to know, love and serve Jesus — or know someone who would — should contact Mr. Kim Markham at 608-558-0936 or kmarkham872@gmail.com.
