What is Awana?

Last Updated 3/31/2025


The name is derived as an acronym of "Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed", taken from 2 Timothy 2:15. As of 2019, Awana works with over 61,000 churches in 122 countries.

Each Awana program is arranged into different groups that are separated by the ages and grades of the children attending. These groups include Puggles (ages 2 to 3), Cubbies (preschoolers, ages 4 to 5), Sparks (Kindergarten to 2nd Grade), Truth and Training, or T&T (Grades 3 to 6), Trek (Middle School), and Journey (High School). Although Awana offers programs for ages 2 to 18, churches that run an Awana program are not required to run a club for every age group. 

Denton Church of the Nazarene's Program has Cubbies, Sparks and Truth & Training.

All are welcome to attend we meet on Wednesday evenings at 6:30pm.  Want to know more?  Call the office and they will connect you with Ashlie Deneau who runs the program.
