AWAken student ministries
What we believe
We believe God created us to glorify Him. We believe that we have all sinned against Him, violating His perfect standard. We believe that God was not willing to see us perish in our state of rebellion against Him and that He graciously sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to live among us, die at our hands, suffering the penalty of sin on our behalf. We believe Jesus rose from the grave and now sits at the right hand of God and that all who place their faith in His work as the one thing that can make them righteous before God are forgiven of their sins. We believe that this is the central message of His Word. We believe that sharing this news with the world is the greatest thing we can do and is now our purpose.
Who we are
We are committed to the gospel of Jesus Christ. While so many students vainly search for satisfaction in friendships, academic and extra-curricular success or the approval of others, we know that lasting joy is only found in Him. We recognize that students can be powerful servants of Christ. Unencumbered, passionate and surrounded by dozens of peers who do not know Christ, students have the potential for explosive missionary ministry. We don't believe we create missionaries; we believe we are training and equipping students to fill the role God has already given them - here and abroad.
How we do it
We get together frequently so that we can encourage each other to be more like Christ, search His Word, pray that His Kingdom will grow and serve to see it happen. We have fun but we know that a relationship with Jesus is more than just fun. We love each other because He loves us and we love Him. If you're a Christian searching for a place where your soul can be fed, join us. If you don't know anything about Jesus, but you suspect that there has to be more to life than the things you've been chasing, we would love to meet you.
