Why Do Kids Love Awana?
Because Awana is Fun!
That's what gets kids to Awana and that's what keeps them coming back. And while they're having fun, they're learning and growing.
And Awana Teaches Kids
that God is real, that He loves them and that He expresses 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 in a sinful world.
The goal of Awana is to reach boys and girls with the gospel of Christ and train them to serve Him.
Every week each group's program is divided into three segments:
Game Time: Individual and team competition takes place through games exclusive to Awana. 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 leader to complete assignments in the curriculum material. 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 as kids progress.
Council Time: Everyone gathers together for singing, announcements, awards and, most importantly, a practical Bible message.
