Stateline Church has begun an Awana program. The program has rapidly grown to include approximately 20 children. Awana is a nondenominational ministry that helps children and youth to know, love and serve Christ. Awana provides fully integrated programs for ages 2 to 18, evangelism tools to reach kids and families, biblical discipleship resources that involve parents and churches, healthy mentor and peer relationships and specialized volunteer training. The organization supplies programs, materials and training for nearly 17,000 churches in more than 100 countries. The organizations name is derived from 2 Timothy, verse 15, Approved workmen are not ashamed.

Awana was founded in 1950 by the North Side Gospel Center in Chicago, IL. By 1960, the program had grown to include 900 churches. Today, more than 12,000 US churches are using the program and is utilized in all 50 states. Outside the United States, Awana is found in more than 6,000 churches in 109 countries and 6 continents.
