Growth of Awana - AAC Yellow – New AAC Clubs Blue – Traditional Clubs 1. In the last 24 years, Awana shared the gospel with 200,000 kids using the traditional AAC model. Since 2007, using the new Adopt-a-Club model, we’ve been able to more than double the number of kids being reached with the gospel through Awana!

How can I get involved? You can be SPONSORED by a church family for $5.00 In (Date) you can INVEST this $5.00 so you can double, triple or quadruple it. In (Date) you will BRING BACK the $5.00 plus what you have made through your investment. It will go towards REACHING KIDS for Jesus thru Awana! If you need $5.00 to help you get started, our church family here at VCOB has already sponsored YOU for this amount! Your mom or dad can pick it up next week during club, as we’re having parent night that night! You’ll have the entire month of October to raise funds with or without the $5.00. What you decide to do may not require money to invest up front. Do you think you each can raise $20.00 in a month? In November you will bring the money you’ve earned. 4. These kids will hear about Jesus just like you do through Awana! They’ll learn verses, have game time and large group time too!

What is the potential amount that our T&T club can raise in (month)? 40 Church Sponsors X $5.00 = $200.00 40 T&T Clubbers X $10.00 = $400.00 40 T&T Clubbers X $15.00 = $600.00 40 T&T Clubbers X $20.00 = $800.00 WHAT GOAL CAN WE AS A CLUB SET? OK, we’ll already have what our church body has given, now what goal can we set as a club? How many can earn $10.00? How many can earn $15.00? How many can earn $20.00? Maybe more? I know some have earned as much as $80-115 from last year so it can be done!

How do I start? This week – Make a plan! (Date) – $5.00 distributed (Month) – Double, triple or quadruple (Month) – Bring your earned dollars to club Think about how you’re going to invest your $5.00 in October or earn dollars during that month for AAC!

IN (month) You get to VOTE! Pick an area of the world Africa – South Asia – S. America – Pacific Rim 1 vote for each $5.00 you turn in Everyone gets at least one vote!

Why are we doing this? Learn stewardship! Make a difference! Become missions minded!

So you know that you CAN make a difference in another child’s life in another country! Understand the importance of being involved in missions around the world! We have been blessed here in the U.S.!
