Where's Sparky?! is created to be an exciting collaboration between Sparkies everywhere, one that encourages them to build friendships, pray for each other and take part in an imaginative cross-country adventure. The goal: churches work together to send Sparky across the U.S. and learn about each other along the way! Sound like fun? Register your church here to enter. Please register by September 19. |

Awana Ministry Conference - The 2008 Awana Ministry Conference locations and dates have been released! This one-day event will train, encourage and inspire Awana volunteers, pastors, Sunday school teachers, youth workers and parents.

In one day, we will ignite a passion for ministry with a variety of practical workshops. Choose the ones that are most relevant to you. You will immediately use the skills you learn to reach kids and teens with the gospel. All eight conference locations and registration forms are located on the Calendar page. |
