AWANA Ministry

“Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.”       2 Timothy (NIV)

Awana Clubs International, which derives its name from 2 Timothy , was formed over 50 years ago in Chicago, Illinois.  It is one of the largest non-denominational Bible-centered youth ministries in the world focused on spreading the gospel of Jesus Christ through local churches with weekly clubs and programs.

The goal of Awana is to reach boys and girls with the gospel of Christ and train them to serve Him.  Awana teaches kids that God is real, He loves them, and He can help them in their daily lives.  Clubs provide start-to-finish adventure in every meeting.  Each segment has its own purpose, but all of them are FUN!

Council Time- Everyone gathers together for singing, announcements, award distribution and, most importantly, a practical Bible message.

Game Time- Individual and team competition takes place through circle games exclusive to Awana and playground favorites.  Every kid gets involved every night and has a chance to unleash his or her energy.

Handbook Time- Kids work one-on-one with a trained leader to complete assignments in the curriculum materials.  Awana emphasizes memorization and understanding of key Bible verses that show how to know God and walk with Him.  A series of awards and trophies reward achievements at every level as kids progress.
