The acronym "AWANA" comes from the first letters of Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed as taken from 2 Timothy 2:15.  AWANA is an international, Bible-centered children's and youth ministry providing local churches with weekly clubs, programs and training for students ages 2 through high school.
 

 

The AWANA Prayer

(the purpose statement of AWANA)

Our Prayer is that all children and youth throughout the world will come to KNOW, LOVE, and SERVE the Lord Jesus Christ.
KNOW- our desire is that every child and youth will know Jesus personally and know that they have eternal life because they trust in Jesus. (Phil. 3:10; John 17:3; Romans 1:16)
LOVE- the Lord desires intimacy with His children. We want to disciple children and youth to grow in their love towards God and others. (Eph. 3:19; 1 John 2:5)
SERVE - serving Christ is a supernatural by-product of loving Him. we want believers to experience the joy of serving.
(Col. 1:10; 2 Timothy 3:17; Eph 2:10)
