Manifest Kids
What is A.W.A.N.A?
At Manifest Church, we don’t just see our Children’s Church as childcare—we see it as a vital ministry. We understand the importance of nurturing the spiritual lives of children and are fully committed to helping them grow in faith from a young age.
We use a globally respected curriculum called AWANA, which stands for Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed (2 Timothy 2:15). AWANA is designed to disciple children at every stage and build a strong, lasting faith.
Our approach is built on the 3B ministry philosophy of child discipleship:
- Belong – Children need to know they are loved and accepted in Christ.
- Believe – They are taught to believe in the truth of God’s Word.
- Become – They are empowered to become disciple-makers in their own right.
Why We’re Passionate About This
The Christian population in the United Kingdom is in decline, especially among younger generations. While many parents know God and attend church, the same cannot always be said of their children. This generational drift is a wake-up call for the Church.
We believe it is our responsibility to guide the next generation back to the heart of God. A church that teaches the Bible in a fun, engaging, and welcoming environment can capture a child’s heart and mind and keep them rooted in the faith.
Our Weekly and Special Programs
Children’s Church is open every Sunday from 10:30 AM. In addition, we run a variety of special programs throughout the year to keep children spiritually engaged and socially connected. These include:
- Children’s Sunday
- Children’s Day Celebrations
- Children’s Camp
- Seasonal Outings and Events
Our goal is simple: To make learning about God the best part of a child’s week. One thing is certain, your child will love it here.
We welcome you and your family with open arms
