2012 Project Giving Catalog
Zalita lives in Lusaka, Zambia where she has attended Awana for the last nine years. At the age of fourteen, she says, When I first joined Awana, I did not know how important it was to know and love God. As I continued to attend Awana I grew more spiritually and eager to learn more about Christ. Zalita is very excited about being trained as an Awana leader in the upcoming months. Just as is the case with Zalita, Awana International works around the world training national leaders to reach children in their communities with the gospel and long-term discipleship. This year, we are introducing Awana International s 2012 Project Giving Catalog! This is a new opportunity for you to support specific projects happening this year. We hope you get excited with us as you see what the Lord is doing and the incredible opportunities He has given us to equip leaders to reach thousands of children around the world! This catalog is also a wonderful way to honor a friend or loved one during holidays and special occasions. By giving in honor of a friend or loved one, you can give a meaningful, significant gift and make an eternal difference in the lives of children. We hope you will consider partnering with us as we seek to reach many more boys and girls with the gospel of Jesus Christ. God bless you for your heart for reaching boys and girls for Christ.
