VISION
Care is a vital part of healthy community. We all experience times in life that remind us we cannot do it alone. It is in these times that God often times shows up through people. The people who drop off a meal, the people who sit with us in prayer, reminding us that we are seen by God and by a friend. Awaken seeks to be the type of community that shows up for one another in tangible ways.
PRACTICAL CARE
This team provides practical forms of care for those who are experiencing significant life events such as a new baby, the loss of a loved one, illness or hospitalization, the loss of a job, or any other event that might welcome extra care. Care from this team includes: meal delivery, handy jobs/yard work, and cleaning/housework.
FINANCIAL CARE
Money can be an emotional thing. We have a benevolence fund available should you find yourself needing a little extra support to get you back on your feet. Contact Jenna for more information.

PASTORAL CARE
Everyone experiences difficulties and could benefit from a caring companion to journey alongside them who will listen, show empathy, and provide a safe place to be honest about the tough issues in our lives. At Awaken, a team of pastoral care members provide a confidential, nonjudgmental, listening presence to anyone experiencing grief, loss, transition, or other concerns. Team members are trained in active listening, and will meet one-on-one with anyone requesting care for concerns such as cancer, divorce, abuse, loss of a loved one, job loss/career change, parenting challenges, depression, new baby, and other things.
