On seven Wednesday nights throughout the summer we will be hosting Firestarter outside at Awaken: a time of fellowship, sharing a meal together, discipleship, and connection. It will start at 6:30 pm with a meal, we’ll have a 7-minute teaching with 7 discussion questions, and then fellowship around the fires. Children are welcome, but we won’t have childcare provided.

You can also learn about Firestarter and see how to get involved in serving at the event by going to https://www.awakenalaska.com/firestarter

Each week, Awaken will provide the meat (hamburgers, hot dogs, or brats) and the rest of the meal will be potluck-style, so if you’re able, bring a side or dessert to share. Or just show up!

On this Sunday of Memorial Day weekend we’ll just have one service together at 10:30 am. After the service, we’re hosting a potluck-style cookout. The church will provide the meat, buns, and condiments, but the sides will be potluck-style, so feel free to bring chips, salad, fruit/veggies, or a dessert to share!

Join us for a time of fellowship and praise to our Savior! We’ll start the evening at 5:30 by sharing a meal together in the Gathering Room, and then at 6:30 we’ll enter the Theater for a time of praise and worship. Nursery will be provided starting at 6:30.

On Sunday, May 18th, we invite you for a time of fellowship and sharing bread together between the 1st and 2nd service. Stay after the 9:30 service ends, or come early for the 11:00 service and partake in some delicious homemade bread provided by bakers in our church.

If you’d like to volunteer to bring some fresh bread, email Anna here.

It’s Spring clean-up time at Awaken! From blowing and raking leaves, picking up trash, to splitting and stacking firewood, there’s a place for everyone of all ages and abilities to serve. It’s a great opportunity to serve together as a family and enjoy fellowship with others in the church.

We will also be bringing back the teen & adult egg hunt! There will be 5 eggs hidden (more difficultly!) around the property that can be turned in and exchanged for a gift card!
