What is Awana?
Awana is a global, non-denominational ministry founded over 70 years ago by two pastors who wanted to reach children with the good news of Jesus Christ. Awana has grown from its beginnings in a church basement in Chicago into a ministry that reaches over five million children and youth around the world each week. Awana stands for "Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed",
Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 2 Timothy 2:15.
Awana reaches kids for Christ through fun, Scripture-rich experiences that lead them to know, love and serve Him. Kids represent the greatest opportunity to make a long-term impact on our world for Christ. Awana reaches kids and families where they're at and walks alongside them in their faith journey.
We look forward to partnering with you as you help your child discover God's purpose for their life and hope for the future.
