Awanas

Seth has started in a program called Awana. This is from their website:

Awana blends Bible teaching, Scripture memorization and tons of fun. Your church’s Awana ministry will impact kids ages 2 to 18 along with their families and entire communities while helping your church instruct parents, train volunteers and make your children's ministry and youth ministry all that God intends them to be.

Seth is in the Cubbies program and he really seems to enjoy it. Part of Awana is scripture memorization and in the first week Seth had to memorize the Cubbie Moto and the Cubbie Verse. The Cubbie Moto is "Jesus Loves Me" and the Cubbie Verse is "God loved us, and sent his son. 1 John 4:10".

We practiced this every night and Seth did a great job of learning his verses. But, Chase would not be left out so he also insisted on learning the verses. He nailed the motto and would get very close on the verse. He often would just recite the citation by saying "first John, four ten."

But, sometimes Chase would say "Uncle John" instead of the citation. Uncle John is one of Shelley's uncles in Oklahoma and the boys just love him. The other cute thing is when we ask Chase where Uncle John lives which is Wapanucka. Chase will reply with "up a nuck a".
