Meet Suzie Rider, our club secretary! Suzie keeps track of the attendance information and club finances, and our club couldn't run without her!
Q: Why did you join Awana?
A: I joined Awana because I loved seeing kids grow in the knowledge of the Bible.
Q: What do you enjoy the most as an Awana leader?
A: I enjoy helping kids learn more about God and seeing them grow and have fun at Awana!
Q: You're experienced in children's ministry - what advice would you give a new Awana secretary to keep everything organized?
A: To keep the records accurate, but not so hard that the kids and parents are held up during check-in. The kids and parents who come in let me know if the have the handbooks and bibles, and I can see their shirts or vest and that they are present, so check-in only takes a few seconds for each child. This is great when the whole family checks in at once. From working in Children's Ministry, I know that if check-in is too complicated, then parents and kids will not want to participate.
Q: What's the most important thing you do behind the scenes?
A: Pray for Awana Club and the Commander and keep her informed of the up-to-date status of the Awana Finances - and spend time talking, answering questions, and praying with the parents in the lobby while the kids are at Large Group Time.
Thanks Suzie!!
