What is Awana®?

Awana® is an international, Bible-centered children's and youth ministry providing local churches with weekly clubs, programs and training for students in preschool through high school. 

Our goal is to equip churches to reach children and teenagers, and their families with the gospel of Christ and train them to serve Him.

The acronym Awana® comes from the first letters of "Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed", taken from 2nd Timothy 2:15.

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 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 churches to start Awana.

Today, more than 11,000 U.S. churches run Awana® programs.  There are clubs in all 50 states.  Awana® can also be found in 3,3000 churches in 109 other countries and six continents.  Jack Eggar is our President/CEO and Art Rorheim serves as our Co-founder.

Regional missionaries and ministry teams will assist you in establishing Awana® as a vital part of your local church's outreach, discipleship and volunteer training.
