What Does The 5/6 Do?

Each Sunday during the third service we hang out play some games, get to know each other, and talk about Scripture. We meet on Sunday evenings at 6:00 p.m. in the gym to have snacks and play creative, team-building games! The 5/6 meets on Sunday evenings at 6:00 p.m. and Sunday mornings at 11:15 a.m.

Next Gen Training for Parents

AWANA

September 8 – April 27 | 6:00 – 8:00 p.m. | Village Church of Bartlett

AWANA meets Monday nights during the school year to engage in large-group teaching, small-group discipleship, and game time. At Village Church, AWANA engages Cubbies (Ages 3-4), Sparks (Grades K-2), and T&T (Grades 3-6). Find descriptions for each age group below:

Cubbies (Ages 3-4): Cubbies introduces kids to Bible memorization in a fun and nurturing environment, including games, puppet shows, crafts, and snacks. Students have lots of fun hiding God’s word in their hearts!

Sparks (Grades K-2): Sparks builds on the foundation that Cubbies laid, while deepening their understanding of the Bible. There are games, small group and large group times, and lots of meaningful connections!

T&T (Grades 3-6): Truth & Training continues to help kids memorize God’s Word and focuses on learning to study the Bible independently. It also includes a fun game time, small and large group teaching times, and growing relationships with each other and Jesus!
