Who We Are

The Awaken Project Gap Year Program

…is an eight month (end of August to end of April) discipleship program that invites young adults between the ages of 18 and 25 to live together in intentional community and center their lives around the daily study of Scripture, corporate prayer, consistent service, cross country travel, and infectious joy.

Objectives of the Gap Year Program

Our gap year program seeks to give students the following throughout the duration of the program:

  • A practical skill set for inductive Bible study in both individual and communal contexts.

  • Grounded friendships and social skills that are developed through living in residential community.

  • Consistent and intentional mentoring throughout the entire year.

Our Mission Statement

Be Awakened. Be Disciples. Be Jesus. (1 Corinthians 12:27; Ephesians 5:13-14)

 

Our Vision Statement

We disciple Christ followers to live intentionally in faith, relationship, and purpose, commissioning them to live out the Gospel that knows no earthly bounds. (Luke 9:1-6; Col. 2:6-7; Isaiah 60)
