Awana
What is Awana?
Awana is fun!
And while they are having fun, they are learning and growing. Awana club meetings are jam-packed with life-changing experiences. The clubs are lead by leaders who live for the Lord Jesus Christ and desire to help young people. The club materials are filled with verses from the Bible and guidelines to help kids memorize and understand them.
Awana teaches kids!
That God is real, that He loves them and that He has expressed that love through Jesus Christ. Kids also learn how God can help them in their daily lives. Lessons from the Bible teach them how to honor God. The goal of Awana is to reach boys and girls with the gospel of Christ and train them to serve Him. This is the end result, but the method is FUN!
Awana is a proven way for churches to provide training in leadership and bring the message of salvation to their communities.
What Awana’s three segments provide!
Start-to-finish adventure in every meeting. Each segment has its own purpose, but all of them are FUN.
- 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 the kids progress.
- Council Time – Everyone gathers together for singing, announcements, award distribution and most importantly, a practical Bible message.
