Awaken: November 24th

This past Tuesday we concluded our series on “church talk”.  We began our worship by singing several songs together and after that Justin concluded the series.  We looked at the word Christian.  We looked at what that means by listening to a story that Justin shared with us.  After a little bit of message time (narrative style) we had a time of prayer to reflect on our week and some of the things we heard.  After that we concluded our worship with one last song and called it a night.  Come and join us next week at Awaken.  Bring a friend to join you and we will see you soon!

Church Talk #4

Come and join us this Tuesday at Awaken.  We will conclude our series on words that we hear in church that are sometimes hard to grasp.  Justin Mikulencak has been leading us in this series and done a great job.  If you haven’t been able to make it to hear him then don’t worry you can still do that tomorrow!  Worship starts at 8:00pm.  Feel free to come up as early as 7:00pm.  Bring a friend or two with you and we will see you soon!

Awaken: November 17th

This past Tuesday night we had a great time at Awaken.  We sang a couple of songs to begin our worship.  Matt Roper led us in worship.  After singing some songs together Justin continued our message series talking about words or phrases that you hear in church that might be a little hard to understand.  This week we talked about faith.  We talked about what faith is and we talked about Peter and Peter’s faith.  Justin talked about Peter and walking on water, suggesting that he did not lost faith in God, but he lost faith in his ability to follow God.  Think about that for a little bit.  After our message time we closed with some time for prayer and a song. Come out and check out Awaken next week.  Bring a friend with you and we will see you soon.

Awaken: November 10th

We had a great night at Awaken!  We began our worship with several songs. Justin continued our series on talking about some of the words/phrases that we hear in church that we might be unclear on.  Last night we talked about “The Body of Christ”.  We looked at the phrase and talked about what that means and what that looks like.  After a time for some message, we had a time for prayer.  We closed our worship with a song and time of prayer.  After worship we all went down to the kitchen and baked 10 dozen cookies for Kairos.  Kairos is a prison ministry you can check it out here.  Come and join us next week as we continue to talk “Church Talk”.  Bring a friend with you and we will see you soon!

Church Talk #2

Tomorrow night Justin will continue the series we started last week.  We are talking about some of the words that are frequently used in church and getting a better understanding of what those words mean.  Last week we talked about Redemption.  Come and find out this Tuesday what we will be talking about!  Worship starts at 8:00pm.  Feel free to come as early as 7:00pm.  Kyle will be bringing what is known as “beaver nuggets”… I am not sure what that is, but if you want some of that come on.  See you all soon!

Awaken: November 3rd

We had a great night last night.  Denise Howton got us a delicious German Chocolate Bunt Cake that was enjoyed by all! Thanks Denise!  We began our worship with several songs.  Actually we introduced four new songs last night.  ”Wholly Yours”, “From the Inside Out”, “How He Loves”, and “Hear Our Prayers”.  After we sang several songs Justin Mikulencak led us in a new series talking about some common words we hear in the life of the church, but can be intimidating when we don’t understand what they mean.  Last night we talked about redemption.  We talked about what redemption is and talked about redeeming love.  After some message time we had a time for prayer.  Then we closed our worship with one final song.  Come out and join us next week as we talk more about “Church Talk”.  Bring a friend or two with you.  This week tell a couple of people about the worship service you attend and invite them to come out and join us for worship.  See you all soon!

Please add any prayer request that you have to the board and we will join you in prayer this week as we hope you will join us too.

Next week after Awaken we will be baking cookies for a Karios Ministry that will be leaving on the 15th.  This should take about 30 minutes after Awaken, so plan to stick around for a little bit to bag up some cookies and pray for them!
