AWANA LISTENING LEADERS
This week on Missions Minded, we want to spotlight our AWANA Listening Leaders. Listening time at AWANA is one of the most important 30 minutes of an AWANA member's week! This small window of time is used to lay God's Word on the hearts and minds of our children. Kids soak up everything and scripture is the most important! Thank you to the many volunteers who show up each week to listen to these kids recite their verses but not only that, they show up to be an example of Christ's selfless love! Thank you AWANA leaders for being:
