ABOVE + BEYOND is one of my favorite initiatives that we can take on as a church each year! This is where we give above what we normally would give to go beyond where we normally would go.

Through the years, your radical generosity as a church has fueled our tanks for missions, next generation ministries, and expansion as a church family!

This year, we have stepped out in faith and set a radical financial goal of $500,000 dollars. I am confident that as we pray, commit, and sacrificially give together, we'll see this goal met and we'll watch God do immeasurably more than we could ever imagine in the year to come.

So, thank you for trusting in God and believing with me for all that we anticipate God will do!

I love you and thank God for you...

Here are some of the ways our generosity can fuel our impact in the next generation; one of the most important priorities at Awaken.

NEXT GEN: $100K

AKids

Providing resources and trainings for team members, as well as, opportunities for kids of all ages to grow in their understanding of Jesus’ love and purpose for them.

AYouth

Offset the cost of retreats and camps so that all students can build deeper relationships with God and each other away from the distractions of everyday life.

Young Adults

Expand our opportunities for groups and internships for young leaders to grow in faith and skills; preparing them for impact in the workplace and the church.

From investing in projects that create more ministry revenue to funding future opportunities for growth, every dollar we raise above our goal helps continue to see the vision of Awaken come to life;
so that people far from God will be awakened to life in Christ.

FUTURE EXPANSION: $300K

Here’s WHY ———
ONE CHURCH. MULTIPLE LOCATIONS.

EVERY SINGLE GIFT

As you pray and ask God to reveal your level of commitment towards our ABOVE + BEYOND Initiative, use the chart provided to inspire and challenge you toward radical generosity.

We have two goals for this year:

2) For us to reach our financial goal of $500K to support these initiatives as God continues to grow His Kingdom through our church.

We invite you to pray over it, commit to an amount, and come ready to give on Commitment Sunday, November 23.
