What makes AWANA unique?

• Clear, consistent presentation of the gospel

• Bible memory - our cornerstone
• Circle games exclusive to Awana
• A fun approach to learning God's Word
• Leadership training that is second to none
• The church leaders of tomorrow trained to serve today
• Evangelistic focus designed to reach un-churched youth and their families

• The acronym AWANA comes from the first letters of Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed. This motto comes from 2 Timothy 2:15. "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."

Who is AWANA for?

• Currently at Pilgrim we host two AWANA clubs: Sparks and T&T.

Sparks (K – 2nd grade)

• The Awana® club for children in kindergarten through second grade builds on the material taught in our preschool clubs. The curriculum takes kids a step deeper into God’s Word while giving unsaved boys and girls regular opportunities to hear the gospel and come to faith in Jesus Christ. After being immersed in solid foundational teaching at the preschool level, boys and girls frequently come to an understanding of their need to trust Christ as their personal Savior while in Sparks®.

T&T (3rd – 6th grade)

• The name Truth & Training reflects the passion of Awana to teach third- through sixth-grade boys and girls the truth of God's Word and to train them to follow Christ in their daily lives. Our goal is that many of today's young people will become tomorrow’s church leaders. T&T is the program that trains the leaders of tomorrow — today.

When is AWANA?

• Our AWANA clubs coincide with the academic school year. We have a fall session and a spring session which will last for about 4-5 months. Registration begins in September for the fall session and in January for the Spring session.
• AWANA is held every Sunday from 2pm – 4pm. Lunch will be served from 1:30pm.
