Clubbin'

To round out our homeschool experience, we participate in a few kids' clubs.  One is Awana.  Awana stands for Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed.  It comes from 2 Timothy 2:15, which says, "Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth."  It is a program for elementary-aged kids and it focus on Scripture memory and Bible-centered activities such as games, Bible lessons, and singing.  She can earn awards for her vest by memorizing Bible verses.

My daughter has also joined a girls' club called Keepers of the Faith.  It is a lot like Girls Scouts, but it is Biblically-based.  It is training daughters to become godly women.  She can earn badges that focus on outdoor skills, keeping a home, serving others, Scripture memory, handicrafts, etc. We LOVE it so far and can't wait to learn even more as we go.
