Why Awana?

At LCCA, we believe that knowing the Word of God is one of the most beneficial disciplines any believer can practice. Unfortunately, American culture has become overwhelmingly Biblically illiterate over the past several decades. since the 1950s, Awana Clubs have been used by the Lord to reach kids, equip leaders, and change the world by engaging kids and adults with God's Word!

Awana's goals are:
1. To reach boys and girls with the Gospel of Jesus Christ
2. To train them to serve Him.
Awana focuses on challenging your child to:
1. Memorize Scripture
2. Engage with Biblical truth
3. Energize with fun games on a weekly basis!

There is one aspect of our Awana club that may make us different from many others is that our club happens on Friday night. Why Friday night? We want our Awana moms and dads to be able to have "date night" while their kids learn to love and serve Jesus! Our Awana program isn’t just for kids, it’s an investment in the whole family!

Here are a few of the key findings from the AWANA alumni study report conducted by Baylor University:

• Church attendance – 92.7 percent of AWANA alumni continue to regularly attend church as adults, and only 1.8 percent said they had dropped out of church since high school. By comparison, 36 percent of Americans surveyed by Baylor who attended church at age 12 said they are now un churched as adults.

• Belief in God – 93.7 percent of our alumni said they wholeheartedly believe in God as opposed to 65.8 percent of Baylor respondents.

• Jesus and salvation – 98.6 percent of alumni believe Jesus is God's Son compared to 70 percent of Americans and 85 percent of Protestants. 93 percent of alumni believe Christ is the only way to salvation. 69.6 percent of Americans believe many roads lead to salvation or do not believe in salvation.

• Belief about the Bible – 94 percent of our alumni believe the Bible is God's Word compared to 58 percent of Americans and 73 percent of Protestants. Our alumni are also 3.6 times more likely than other churchgoers and Americans to read in virtually every case the Bible several times a week.

• Church service – At 74 percent, our alumni were five times more likely than Americans polled by Baylor to serve their church 11 hours or more each month.

• Personal evangelism – 70 percent of alumni said they share their faith with friends at least once a month compared to 35.7 percent of the national average, 48.7 percent of Protestants and 59 percent of the most devoted churchgoers.
