Welcome from Our Pastor
Dear parents:
Welcome to the Awana Clubs at Chinese Bible Church of West Los Angeles. We understand how important your children are to you, that's why at Chinese Bible Church (CBC) we seek to provide the best program for your children.
On Saturday nights you will find a group of kids (from 3-year-olds to 30-plus-year-olds, like me) having a great time learning from the Bible and playing together. We learn from the Bible together because we believe it is the very Word of God and it teaches us how God wants us to live our lives. We play together because we believe learning and living ought to be fun. We do things together because we believe life is too short for us to go through it alone.
At Chinese Bible Church, we are committed to partnership with you in raising your children. Awana Clubs is just one of the programs we offer to provide such support. We are very excited about our clubs and we trust you will soon catch this enthusiasm as your children taste how much fun it is to be a part of this program, and as you see how this program is impacting your children's life in positive ways.
We thank you for trusting us with your children. I encourage you to browse through the rest of our website and get familiar with our program and what our church has to offer. I trust you will be pleased with our program and our commitment to you.
Sincerely in Christ,
Rev. Donald Lau
Senior Pastor
Philosophy
We value each child highly because the Bible says: "Children are a gift from God; they are a reward from Him" (Psalm 127:3).
We believe in godly instruction and discipline because the Bible says: "Teach your children to choose the right path, and when they are older, they will remain upon it" (Proverbs 22:6).
What is Awana?AWANA stands for "Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed", which comes from a book in the Bible called 2nd Timothy. AWANA is an international, Bible-centered children's program, where clubbers can enjoy breath-taking games and activities, sing exciting praise songs, earn prizes and awards, meet new friends and learn about God and His Word, the Bible.
Our Clubs
Truth and Training (T&T) is for 3rd graders and above. Beginning with the Start Zone booklet and continuing through the unforgettable Ultimate Adventure Series, clubbers will learn the truth of God's Word and apply it to their daily lives.
Sparks (T-cubs) is for 1st and 2nd graders. With Sparky, the friendly firefly, T-cubs will have fun learning Bible verses and other fun activities. Upon completion of the Tcub material, clubbers will progress to the T&T Club.
Cubbies is a club especially for Pre-K and kindergarten clubbers. These clubbers will not only learn simple lessons from Bible stories but will also have fun making crafts, singing and playing games!.
What is a Club Night?
A typical club night consists of Game time, Handbook and Council time, Cubbie bear time (for Cubbies only), Snack time and Music Worship time. Throughout the year, we also have special Theme Nights that everyone enjoys!
Club nights meet on Saturdays from 7:00 pm to 9:15 pm in Chinese Bible Church’s Walker Hall. Please refer to our monthly calendar for the latest updates.
Our Awana Leaders
Our AWANA club is run by a group of trained volunteers who above all, want to honor our Lord Jesus Christ and to share God's love with both you and your children. We try our best to serve you and hope that AWANA will always be a warm, safe, and fun place where your child can learn, grow, and experience the power and love of our wonderful God.
