Power to Win Outreach Kit
An evangelism opportunity for your Awana club
Power to Win events leverage youth interest in professional sports with earnest testimonies from professional athletes to create powerful, evangelistic impact. These events have been used in local churches for over a decade to introduce more than 50,000 people to Jesus Christ.
The Power to Win Outreach Kit will help you hold sports-themed evangelism efforts in your club around the popularity of the National Football League’s championship game. Awana and Sports Spectrum magazine have partnered to offer Awana-affiliated churches a specially packaged kit at a special price. [Read More...]
Awana missionaries are faith supported, which means we must raise all the funding for our ministry and living expenses. We are completely dependent upon the gifts of God's people to meet our living and working expenses. We have been running a deficit for over a year now and are being forced to focus our time and energy on raising support rather than on the needs of the local ministry. Please consider adding or increasing your support of this vital local ministry either through your church or on an individual basis.
To support your local missionary with a one-time gift or on a regular basis, please complete the Online Donation form.
To make a one-time gift online, please use our PayPal-based feature.
Three Ways To Benefit Your Awana Missionary:Gifts of Stock: - You can make a gift of securities to benefit your Awana Missionary by wire transfer or mailing stock certificate(s). [More information]
Non-Cash Assets - Many people consider cars, boats, timeshares, jewelry, business inventory, real estate, and other non-cash type gifts to help us reach boys and girls, and their families too, for Christ. An estimated 90% of America's wealth is in non-cash assets, yet the vast majority of churches and ministries receive less than 10% of their gifts from these assets. Why? Because they're not equipped to accept non-cash gifts. Through our foundation we can accept them, and we will work with you to develop the best giving strategy for you and your family. If done properly, givers can avoid or reduce taxes and maximize giving. Simply visit CreativeGivingSolutions.com's Awana section to learn more. On that page, select the Donation Button and choose the U.S. Missionary Fund. Under the Brief Description type the Missionary's name or account number.
Your IRA - If you are over age 70 1/2, you may annually gift any amount up to $100,000 of your IRA to your Awana Missionary. It's very easy to make the gift by directing your custodian to transfer a portion of your required minimum distribution directly to Awana. [More information]
