Meet our Awana Commander
Since 2010, Tucson Baptist Church has been faithfully running an Awana club for our midweek children’s program. In 2016, Daniel Taylor stepped in to assume the role of Awana Commander.
Daniel is a lifelong member of Tucson Baptist Church and has many years of volunteer experience in youth ministries. He was saved at a young age in the TBC youth program. His wife Lauren also serves on the Awana leadership team as club secretary, handling recordkeeping and material distribution. They have two young girls, Addison and Aria, and the entire family loves Tucson Baptist Church. Outside of his family and his church, Daniel is an avid cyclist, runner and swimmer and has competed in a handful of local triathlons and other athletic events.
No, we gladly welcome all children who fit in the age/grade range of our club!
Yes! We welcome families to come up to three Awana club nights as a visitor to see if we would be a good fit for you. There are no costs associated with coming as a visitor. After the three trial weeks, we kindly ask that children become registered clubbers so they can fully engage in all Awana has to offer.
In most cases, children who were actively involved in Awana with another church will not lose progress when joining the Tucson Baptist Church Awana Club. Our Awana leadership team will work diligently to make the transition for your child as seamless as possible. However, it is very possible that certain aspects of the Awana program will vary from one church to the next (handbook progression, award system, uniform requirements). Please contact awana@tucsonbaptist.com with any questions.
We do not take lightly the trust and responsibility given to us to work with your children on a weekly basis; therefore, the following are requirements for ALL of our Awana Club Volunteers:
• Adult member of Tucson Baptist Church
• Faithful church attendance
• Pass a criminal background check
• Completion of Awana Volunteer training
If you meet the requirements above and would like to volunteer to serve in the Tucson Baptist Awana Club, please click here to complete the volunteer registration form.
Tucson Baptist Church and its Awana Club exclusively uses the King James Version of the Bible.
