Awana is a nondenominational approach to learning the Bible through Scripture memory, Bible Study, games, and awards.
The acronym for AWANA comes from II Timothy 2:15 and stands for Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed. AWANA’s goal is to reach boys and girls with the gospel of Christ and to train them to serve Him. It is based on 2 Timothy 2:15 and the purpose of Awana is to reach boys and girls with the gospel of Christ and train them to serve Him. It also engages ministry to children and their families.
