The Awakening is a FREE community outreach where the Body of Christ comes together in unity to love our city, serve our neighbors, and lift high the name of Jesus Christ.
Our prayer is simple: that every person who comes would have a genuine encounter with King Jesus while enjoying a day of fellowship, family, community, and fun.
🙌 LOOK WHAT GOD DID LAST YEAR!
🔥 Over 1,400 people attended
💧 30+ people were baptized
❤️ Countless people connected with local churches, ministries, organizations, businesses, and community resources that they are still connected with today.
To God alone be all the glory!

Our desire is not only to see people come to Christ, but to see them connected, discipled, and growing in a Bible-believing local church.
🙏 PLEASE PRAY WITH US
Pray that God brings the right ministries, organizations, businesses, volunteers, artists, testimonies, finances, and every resource needed to accomplish His perfect will.
We are believing God for the provision of the vision. We trust Him to provide every volunteer, every partnership, every artist, every testimony, every resource, and every dollar needed to accomplish His will and bring glory to His name.
