Acts 1:8 Ministry

---

"But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”

Each month Beach Beacon features a ministry need from our community, our state or from around the world.  We collect items that fulfil their needs, send volunteers to help minister to our community and raise funds to allow these missions to provide for their needs and share the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Our acts 1:8 Ministry for November are  Awana Missionaries, Kevin and Marietta Chewning.  The Beach Beacon Family Thanksgiving Dinner on Thursday, November 21 is one way you can support their ministry. 100% of the admission cost for the dinner will go directly to them.  We will also be collecting a Love offering each week in November at the welcome center or through our on-line giving portal.

​Awana Missionaries - Kevin and Marietta Chewning
​
Kevin and Marietta have served as Awana Missionaries since March 2008. They began their Awana journey Fall of 1999 as leaders in their local church. In their first year of Awana they saw the great need to reach kids with the gospel and how Awana could equip leaders to reach kids. They began serving as Awana Ministry Directors and Ministry Team Members in 2001.
Kevin and Marietta grew up in Eastern North Carolina and were saved as young children. They met in the Fall of 1995 at the University of North Carolina at Wilmington while serving at the local Baptist Student Union. They were married in 2001 and have 3 kids Anna, Samara and Thomas. All 3 kids enjoy going to Awana each week.

Awana has over 100 missionaries in the U.S. serving the local church through the initiation and development of Awana programs. All Awana missionaries are “faith supported” and deputized to raise their own support. U.S. missionaries are responsible for area growth, church relations, volunteer team building and training. Our missionaries focus on building and maintaining healthy relationships with pastors, church leaders, volunteers and other ministries.
