  1. Over the past few years, we have shifted more and more to encourage our AWANA kids to use their shares to purchase for others first and then themselves. In October and November a section of the AWANA store is set up with items that kids can buy with their shares to donate to fill Operation Christmas Child boxes. Our goal this year was for the kids to buy enough items to fill 10 boxes and they did it! In Jan-Mar, a section of the store will be filled with items that an upcoming missions trip needs to take along on the trip. Kids will once again sacrificially give of their AWANA shares in order to purchase items to donate. Kids are filled with incredible joy as they save up and/or combine shares with a friend in order to purchase for these two causes (OCC and missions trip). It is very special to see the excitement they experience as they enter into giving with their shares this way!
