for teaching our children about Jesus. Our ministry is a year-round effort to share the love of
Christ with as many children in as many different ways as possible. Below, you will find the

Awana Ministry Vacation Bible School Camp Piney Children's Choir
AWANA is a kid’s club that supplies fun games, theme nights, while teaching God’s Word
to the children. If you are not familiar with AWANA, it is similar to a Christian Boy & Girl Scout.
We meet weekly during the school year (Late August – May 1) on Wednesday nights from
5:45 – 7:00 pm in the CLC. (gym)
For more info visit the AWANA International website.
AWANA is an acronym taken from the scripture verse found in 2 Timothy 3:15 that stands for:Approved
Workmen
Are
Not
AshamedAwana is an international nondenominational organization centered around the Bible to
reach boys and girls with the gospel of Christ and to train them to serve Him. This goal
is accomplished through Awana clubs in local churches.
Our Awana Clubs meet Wednesday nights beginning at 5:45 pm in the CLC.
The different Awana Clubs offered at Pine Grove are:Puggles – The club for 2 yr. olds
Cubbies - The club for 3 & 4 year olds
Sparks - The club for kindergarten through second grade
Truth & Training (T&T) - The club for all third through sixth grade boys and girls. This is a
four-year program with a sequence of four handbooks.
Each club emphasizes memorization of Bible verses and activities centered around the Bible.
