EACH CLUB MEETING CONSISTS OF

Game Time
Fun, non-competitive games at the AWANA game circle

Handbook Time
Bible studies, activities, and service opportunities that allow children to go deeper into the Bible and memorize God’s Word

Large Group Time
Where kids gather to sing workshop songs and participate in a Bible lesson to learn more about our Savior

TRUTH & TRAINING
Truth & Training (T&T) has separate clubs for boys and girls in grades 3-6. This program helps children to build a firm foundation for their faith, to hide God’s Word in their hearts, and to apply the truths of Scripture to their daily lives.  

T&T Ultimate Challenge
trains 5th and 6th graders that walking faithfully with Christ is the ultimate challenge!

T&T Ultimate Adventure
teaches 3rd and 4th graders that salvation in Christ is the ultimate adventure!

Before working in a handbook, kids new to T&T complete a short booklet that explains God’s plan of salvation. In T&T handbooks, every “Discovery” or “Challenge” begins with a parent page that explains how you can reinforce the truths taught in later sections and help your child succeed. Consistent, long-term participation in Awana—accompanied by spiritual training from parents—reaps long-lasting results.
