Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed
"Study to show yourself approved unto God, workmen who are not ashamed , rightly dividing the word of truth."
II Timothy 2:15
Calvary Baptist Church and First Congregational Church, both in Parkersburg, are partnered together under the Awana charter #12599, and currently offer six clubs for boys and girls from preschool age through the sixth grade. Our goal for the Awana program is:
"To reach boys and girls (and their families) with the Gospel of Christ, and to train them to serve Him."
The Awana program will start again in September 2007. We meet most Wednesday evenings during the school year, unless school has been cancelled during the day. Flag ceremony begins promptly at 6:20 pm.
