AWANAS 2008 (Fitzhugh program is thru 5th grade)Awana is an international, Bible-centered youth ministry providing local churches with weekly clubs and programs for pre-schoolers through high schoolers. Our goal is to reach boys and girls, 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 (2 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 of Christ 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 clubs.
Today, there are more than 9,000 churches in the United States that have Awana Clubs. There are clubs in all 50 states. Awana can also be found in over 2,700 churches in more than 109 other countries, from Argentina to Zimbabwe, from Iceland to Australia.
