WHAT DOES THE WORD AWANA MEAN?

AWANA is an acronym for “Approved Workman Are Not Ashamed”. It is taken from the scripture verse II Timothy 2:15, which states, “Study to show yourself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF AWANA?

The goal of AWANA is “to reach boys and girls with the gospel of Christ and train them to serve Him”. Thus the purpose of AWANA is two fold:

• EVANGELISM - To draw boys and girls from the community into the club ministry where they may hear the gospel and accept Christ as their Savior.
• TRAINING - To prepare clubbers to help fulfill the Great Commission through outreach to the lost, service in the local church and development of leadership qualities.
