Since we cannot hold games this year, we thought that you might enjoy watching some Awana games from Zimbabwe…

The Summit offering is going to this project to help get Awana into the public schools in Zimbabwe. The remaining funding needed to complete this project is $75,000. It takes only $650 to start Awana in one school. This could CHANGE A WHOLE NATION!
A generous Awana donor in IL donated $8,500 to the ministry in hopes that Summit will come together to raise an additional $8,500 to disciple these children in African schools. Perhaps reaching a nation in the shortest amount of time!!
To support our Africa School project by donating online, please click here and follow the prompts: – Under Region, select “Africa.” – Under Country, select “Africa School Project.” (screenshot of donation page below)
If you choose to give to Awana via check please include ““XA005 Fund” & “Summit2020” in the memo line and send to: Awana Clubs International Attention: Quizmaster, Jeff Schacherer One East Bode Road Streamwood, IL 60107
Be sure to come back daily and study the information that we will be providing because there will be a quiz with THE Quizmaster extraordinaire, Jeff Schacherer, later in the week.
I encourage you to show that Summit spirit and give to this project to help establish Awana in public schools in Zimbabwe. Let’s see how many schools we can provide funding for so they can be trained.
The Summit Social Media SUV has a special stop to make today. Watch for updates here, as well on Facebook and Instagram. This is going to be a great week!
The Summit Social Media SUV had a planned stop at a hotel in Mount Juliet, TN which recently had a devastating tornado go through the town. The Summit Social Media SUV had also planned to travel through Arkansas. Arkansas also experienced a tornado yesterday, though not on the path of our journey. The hotel we were planning to stay at in Mount Juliet was not far from the path of the tornado. We would ask that you keep the people in those towns in prayer as they deal with the physical destruction as we navigate the COVID-19 pandemic.
We also want to keep Zimbabwe in prayer. Leadership in Zimbabwe took notice of markedly improved school attendance and behavior issues in the few schools that have incorporated Awana in their weekly curriculum. They recently opened the door to public schools in Zimbabwe to be trained to integrate Awana into their schools. Zimbabwe has around 3.5 million primary age children, the harvest is great. Can you imagine being at the ground floor of an opportunity that not only exposes children to the gospel, but could change a whole nation!?!? If Awana can bring Jesus to such a large population of Zimbabwe through the schools, these children will grow up to be the parents and future leaders of this nation.
Some of the schools have been trained already. Here are some pictures of that training as well as a picture of one of the school rooms.

Today would have been the day that the Summit Social Media SUV would have rolled out, beginning its journey to Summit, but instead, it is parked as we honor the “stay at home” order that has been issued in the county where we live.
Though we are not physically headed to Summit, we are headed for the LIVE Summit event coming this Saturday (April 4, 2020) at 7pm CDT – details to come next week. We hope to “see” you there!
As we embark on this week of Summit, I think of one of the special aspects of Summit, the way we show God’s love to one another, and encourage one another. Our challenge to you this week is to embrace that same spirit even though we are not physically together. Though we may be practicing social distancing, and abiding by local orders to stay at home, we live in an age where we can reach hundreds, even thousands, or even just that one who needs it, by using technology. This could be the time where you can encourage someone where time seemed to prohibit it before. A simple phone call, or even a handwritten letter can do wonders to encourage another. What can you do this week to encourage someone?
The Summit Offering
Hello Summit!
I hope you and your family are doing well during these
challenging times.
As Quizmaster, I’m sorry we are unable to be together in
person, but we are together in Christ and know that He is in full control!
I want to THANK all those in leadership at SUMMIT for
allowing Awana International again this year to share an exciting opportunity
for the 2020 Summit offering.
God is opening doors in unprecedented ways. Awana is being introduced into primary
schools (ages 5-12) thanks to the Secretary of Education in Zimbabwe AS PART OF
THEIR WEEKLY CURRICULUM! The first phase
will be to train and equip 325 schools which will reach an average of 500
children in EACH SCHOOL!!
Some of the schools have been trained already. Over the next few days we will be showing pictures and videos of what God is already doing in Zimbabwe through Awana.
Be sure to come back daily and study the information that we will be providing because there will be a quiz with THE Quizmaster extraordinaire, Jeff Schacherer, later in the week.
