Testimonials from 2022 Conference:

 

“My experience at Awaken this year was so meaningful and impactful. It was great to come together with many people my age and in similar seasons of life and help each other grow. I look forward to more events for the young adults of the district to come together and create lasting friendships!” - Nicky

“I went to Awaken with one expectation… that God would move. Those who took up the mantle to lead in faith, helped provide a space where God did exactly that. And it is now obvious to me that God uses the ministry of Awaken to refresh, renew, and bless His people.” - Jacob

“I had a wonderful time at Awaken, where I was able to spend time with the Lord. Everything from the activities to the worship to the messages were outstanding. I can’t wait to go back again!“ - Sydney

“Awaken weekend was truly life changing! Being that this was my first Christian conference, I went into it with an open heart and open mind. It was amazing to feel God’s presence through worship, sermons, and conversations with other young adults. I am looking forward to next year!” - Taryn

“I can’t say enough good things about Awaken. The atmosphere, the messages, and most importantly the people, all surpassed my expectations. Being able to strengthen my faith around so many supportive friends really meant a lot. I can’t wait to see what next year brings!” - Shane

“My time at awaken was one of the best three days of my life. Not only did I strengthen my faith in Jesus Christ, but I was able to meet and create new relationships with fellow Christians. My favorite part of Awaken was the small groups because we reflected on what we learned in the sermons and that helped me immensely.” - Caleb

"My experience at Awaken was nothing short of fantastic. Throughout the weekend we had several amazing speakers who helped me grow my faith and understanding of what it meant to be a Christian. There were tons of fun activities like zip lining, kayaking, rock climbing, dance parties and a bonfire which created life long memories with friends." - Dakota
