Teaching Notes

RAISE UP | Part 1

Protege Sunday

At Awakening Church, our vision is to be a strategic training center raising up the next generation of world changers. Over the next three weeks, our services will be centered around celebrating and hearing from three different demographics within our church who embody our heartbeat for making disciples: Our Proteges, Youth, and Family Ministries!
