What is AWANA?
Approved Worskmen Are Not Ashamed … AWANA!
Awana at Country Oaks is a weekly, Bible-centered ministry geared towards youth from preschool – high school. Awana’s goal is to reach out to children, teenagers, and their families, with the gospel of Christ and train them to serve Him. (Learn about the prayer, vision, mission and values of Awana at www.awana.org.)
“Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” ~ 2 Timothy 2:15

Sparks (Kindergarten-2nd grade)
Though club night is very exciting for the kids, and often the highlight of their week, we recognize that most of the spiritual instruction is going to happen as parents help their kids memorize the verses at home and explain the meaning of each verse. Our “AWANA at Home” program helps parents learn how to bring the three key elements of AWANA into your home: Scripture memory, Bible teaching, and game time.
