TREK – An AWANA program for Middle-School Students
Join us as we begin our TREK for God!
TREK challenges middle-school students to consider their relationship to Jesus Christ and how to seek His wisdom. TREK encourages students to live their lives for Christ’s Honor and Glory. A study in how to live one’s life in light of God Holy Word. What is God’s will for their life as a son or daughter of God.
Trek® is Biblically rich content with practical application for your students’ lives. Each lesson includes an activity, lesson, memory verse and seven days of devotions that help students understand the Bible.
We invite you to join us as we pray, study God’s Word, discuss how to apply His Word in our daily Trek, and of course… play games, worship Him in song, and more!
Trek First Book: Focuses on four big concepts in a framework called Redemption History. The four big concepts are Creation, The Fall, Redemption and Consummation. It allows them to work through the entire scripture and understand the big story God is telling, not only about the world but what God is telling about them as well.
