 AWANA Clubs:  Truth & Training
 
Truth and Training (T&T) clubs are designed for boys and girls in the 3rd - 6th grades.  The name Truth and Training reflects the passion of AWANA to teach 3rd -6th graders the truth of God's Word and to train them to follow Christ in their daily lives.  Our goal is that many of today's young people will become tomorrow's church leaders.  T&T is the program that trains the leaders of tomorrow - Today! 
  
Exciting features to get kids excited about God’s Word, T&T is equipped with a variety of dynamic tools to accomplish this mission:
 

Weekly meetings:

Game Time is when fun, exciting, team-oriented games are played on the AWANA Game circle

Council Time is when clubbers get together for singing and Bible teaching, and are challenged to serve God.

Handbook Time is when clubbers meet in separate, small group to recite Bible verses from memory, interact with their trained leaders, complete their handbook sections and earn awards.

  • Four handbooks of increasing difficulty which teach children that life’s ultimate adventure is a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
  • A cast of fun characters that boys and girls learn from and follow on interesting journeys in the handbooks. 
  • Weekly meetings that expose children to the gospel message, Scripture memory, Bible study, awards, team- oriented games and gut-busting fun.
  • A Bible-centered curriculum that helps kids build a firm foundation for their faith, hide God’s Word in their heart and apply the truths of Scripture to their daily lives.
  • Evangelism and discipleship go hand in hand in our third- through sixth-grade program.
By the time a child has completed T&T, he will have:
  • Learned and reviewed approximately 310 verses.
  • Studied dozens of passages from the Old and New Testament.
  • Regularly heard and read the gospel message.
  • Discovered the Bible’s response to questions like “How does God want me to live my life?" and memorized verses to back up these answers.
  • Completed missions projects that help him see the world through God’s eyes.
