Awana meets every Friday night from 6:00—8:00   from ages 3 through 8th grade. The Awana Team is a group of the most fun people you'll find anywhere!

Awana is a nondenominational ministry that assists churches in reaching children and teenagers with the gospel of Jesus Christ and training them to serve Him. It is a ministry that is all about fun with a purpose — to win and grow kids for Christ!

The acronym Awana comes from the first letters of Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed which is taken from the Bible in 2 Timothy 2:15 which says, “Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.”

Awana began in 1950 as a youth program at the North Side Gospel Center in Chicago, Illinois. Lance Latham, the church pastor, worked with Art Rorheim to develop a program that would appeal to young people, reach them with the gospel of Christ and train them in the Lord’s work. Other churches heard about the success of the Awana program and asked if they could use it. By 1960, Awana had registered 900 clubs. If you would like more information on AWANA, please click HERE
