Finally, We’re (at) Awake!

Posted on June 23rd, 2007 | Filed under Awake News, What's happening?

The weekend we’ve been waiting for…Awake 2007 is here! On Friday afternoon groups from across America came together to begin this weekend, and its been great so far!

We even have some unexpected guests this weekend…cicadas! Welcomed by some, feared by others, these unusual bugs brought a lot of attention to themselves as students explored the campus on Friday!

At our first Gathering Kelly, Drew, and Margaret did a speedy reenactment of God’s story—from the beginning of creation through the early days of the church—all in under 5 minutes! Here’s God (Drew) holding the world in his hands.

Last night we finished off the evening with the first ever Awake Late Night Party! We had tons of snacks—the full size candy bars were the best! Plus there was Dance Dance Revolution, Bags, Pool, Carpet Ball, Ping Pong, a movie, board games, an art station…

Stay tuned for more updates as the weekend progresses!
