Please pray for us as we help churches in North Texas reach boys and girls for Christ.

Kelvin and Sandra are faith support missionaries, entirely dependent upon the Lord to supply their needs through His people. They do not receive any commission, percentage, or salary from Awana Clubs International. Awana handles their ministry finances, and returns the gifts to them according to the needs of their family and ministry expenses in order to give them the greatest tax advantage and maintain IRS requirements.

Of the gifts designated to their ministry, 90% goes into local ministry needs. Their salary level and housing allowance is set annually by the Awana Board of Directors and is paid from this account. Please pray about becoming part of our support team and help us to help others reach children and youth for Christ.

News about our ministry...

Ministry Needs - Monday, January 26, 2009

Many Awana leaders and pastors assume that we are paid by Awana International to serve the churches in North Texas. That just simply is not true. Our ONLY means of financial support comes from churches and individuals within our region. This is my only job and it is a more than full time ministry.

We are currently experiencing a severe shortfall and have had to make cutbacks in our ministry and staff to try and get our account back into the black. Please pray about becoming part of our support team through monthly donations to our account. For more information please view the "read more..." link below.
