What is CARAVAN?  CARAVAN is a weekly kids club committed to the physical, social, mental, and spiritual growth of children. It uses an active, hands-on learning approach to help kids discover, develop, experience, and grow.  The program is much like the Boy/Girl  Scouts; participants recieve a uniform in which badges that they will earn can be sown onto. 

Caravan teaches children th e Articles of Faith of the Church of the Nazarene, information about prominent figures in Nazarene church history, valuable skills to help them develop spiritually, socially, mentally, and physically.

CARAVAN Centers around four basic values:

Discover—essential physical, social, mental, and spiritual skills.

Develop—self esteem through recognition.

Experience—positive interaction with caring adults and peers.

Grow—in their understanding of and appreciation for being part of God's church family.

Please feel free to contact CARAVAN director, Lona Cannon for more information!!  We would like to extend a warm invitation to your children to attend this awesome ministry!!
