What Is Awana

AWANA is a children’s ministry that seeks to reach kids for Christ through fun, Scripture-rich experiences that lead them to know, love, and serve Him. AWANA uses Scripture memory and Biblical familiarity to make an impact in the lives of children and their families. Each child uses a handbook (guide) to learn Scripture, truths from the Bible, and how to use the Bible. As scripture is memorized and lessons are completed in the workbook, children earn awards to signify each step through the handbook.

Children will be participating in games, crafts, scripture memory, fellowship with kids in their age group, and much more. All of our leaders show up every week to invest in these children’s lives as much as they can for the reward of seeing more children come to know Jesus as their Savior. Children also have the opportunity to earn awards and recognition for their progress in the program.

But Awana is not just for children, it’s also for parents, grandparents, and other adult volunteers who desire to make an impact in the lives of kids. We provide training and resources to help adult volunteers lead and mentor children in their faith journey.

For Kids Of All Ages

With resources and curriculum for children ages 2 through 5th grade, Awana introduces biblical truths and develops a respect for God, His Son and His Word ultimately teaching them to live a life of wisdom and grace.

For Toddlers

Puggles® recognizes the learning ability of two and three year olds by introducing biblical concepts at church and equipping families to teach them at home. This year-long preschool ministry curriculum features playful activities, engaging songs and simple crafts as well as take-home resources.

For Preschoolers

Cubbies® nurtures the budding faith of preschoolers and celebrates their desire to explore all that God has created. This two year preschool ministry curriculum features exciting games, storytelling, puppet shows, and biblical teaching as well as take-home activities and tools.

Grades K-2

Sparks® ignites a child’s curiosity about the people and events of the Bible, building a foundation of wisdom for knowing Christ. This three year early elementary school ministry curriculum features exciting games, engaging activities, biblical teaching and media resources for kids and leaders.

Grades 3-5

T&T® explores the concept of grace by focusing on the character and nature of God, identity of Christ, as well as the structure and format of the Bible. This three year upper elementary school ministry curriculum is created to ensure that kids and leaders connect through God’s Word.

Week-To-Week At Awana

Awana offers three major activities to help children grow in their faith: during large group time, kids learn biblical truths through engaging lessons and music; in small group time, they have the opportunity to develop relationships with mentors and peers while exploring the Bible in depth; and during activity time, they get to have fun playing games and participating in other age-appropriate activities.

LARGE GROUP TIME

During Large Group Time, children and students can gather to sing worship songs, receive the awards they’ve earned and, most importantly, learn relevant and applicable truths from Scripture. This segment of the Awana program offers an opportunity to easily integrate Awana with the lesson themes taught in Sunday school each week.

SMALL GROUP TIME

Small Group Time allows kids to break into age-specific groups where they dive into biblical truth with their leaders, discuss the meaning and application of Scripture, and share verses they’ve memorized. Small Group Time establishes a foundation for understanding the Bible and growing as a resilient disciple of Christ in a community with other Christians that will last a lifetime.

ACTIVITY TIME

Kids will rotate through a series of fun, high-energy activities both indoors and outdoors throughout the year. In short… It’s Game Time! In fact, one of the things kids will most remember about their Awana days is the fun they had playing games, doing crafts and engaging with different activities.

Why Should My Child Participate In Awana?

Enrolling your child in Awana Ministry can be one of the best decisions you make for your family’s spiritual growth. Children who participate in AWANA will be learning and memorizing scripture on a weekly basis and giving parents more of an opportunity to have spiritual conversations with them at home. This allows them to be better equipped to follow Jesus and hide God’s Word in their heart, which will stay with them throughout their entire life.

Not only will your child have the opportunity to learn about God’s love and grow in their faith, but the entire family can benefit from the experience. As parents, you’ll have the chance to get involved in your child’s spiritual journey and meet other families who share your values. You’ll also have access to resources and training that can help you become better equipped to lead your family in faith. And as your child progresses through the program, you’ll see them develop important skills like memorization, teamwork, and leadership that will benefit them for a lifetime.

So don’t wait any longer – enroll your child in Awana Ministry today and experience the transformational impact it can have on your entire family’s life.
