… Igniting Vibrant Faith
The children’s ministry @ Bow Valley exists to support parents and to provide opportunities for kids to encounter God and to learn His word. Our prayer is that God would use this ministry to ignite a vibrant faith in the hearts of kids and families, developing hearts that long to know Christ, to follow Him, and to make Him known.

What does a night of Awana Look Like?
- awana@bowvalleybaptist.comYour children will rotate through three main areas during an Awana meeting: 1) Handbook Groups, 2) Game Time, and 3) Large Group.
