About Awana Canada
Awana Canada helps churches and parents worldwide raise children and youth to know, love and serve Christ. Awana is a broad-based ministry. Scripture memory and weekly children’s clubs are just one aspect of what we offer. We feature seven core benefits that will help churches and parents raise children and youth to know, love and serve Christ for a lifetime:
- Fully integrated programs for ages 2 to 18
- The best evangelism tools to reach unsaved children, youth and families
- Teaching that builds an enduring biblical faith
- Resources that bring churches and parents together to disciple the next generation
- Initial and ongoing volunteer training
- Healthy mentor and peer relationships
- Irresistible fun for children, teens and adults alike!
One of the main themes you may notice about our core features is the emphasis on Awana as a tool that brings churches and parents together to raise kids spiritually. “Being effective in transforming children and youth into spiritual champions is something that takes both the church and the parents of the kids working in partnership,” said Awana Clubs International President/CEO Jack Eggar.
Grounded in the gospel
Since our founding in 1950, the primary purpose of Awana has been reaching children and youth and their families with the gospel of Christ. That vision will never change.
“Awana has always been and always will be first and foremost about helping the local church get the life-changing gospel message of our Lord Jesus Christ out into the community,” Jack Eggar said.
Focused on Clubs
Awana Clubs is the name of the children’s ministry division. It is devoted to overseeing our programs for boys and girls ages 2 to sixth grade. Our Awana Clubs ministry connects churches and parents through weekly programs and special events that introduce children to Christ and build a biblical foundation for faith.
Besides Awana Clubs, we also offer 24-7 Ministries. 24-7 Ministries equips leaders with strategic tools to build a healthy youth ministry that grounds students in a lasting biblical faith.
