Awaken Ministry Details
"Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will give you light." Ephesians 5:14Welcome to Awaken!Our hope through this ministry is simply to bring people into an experiential encounter with Jesus Christ, such that they would be so touched by God's real presence, they would be compelled to go out and share the Good News with others! We are a grass roots ministry and are not affiliated with any particular parish. We are simply a small group of faithful lay Catholics who love the Lord and Catholic Church, and have a desire to respond to the call of The New Evangelization.Awaken Ministry is a monthly outreach currently hosted by various Catholic parishes in the Archdiocese of Detroit, and most recently the Upper Peninsula of MI. The basic format of an Awaken experience is three-fold: praise and worship, the preached Gospel, and Eucharistic Adoration. . The mission of Awaken Ministry is born out of words spoken in 1983 by Blessed Pope John Paul II, when while addressing the Latin American Bishops, he said, "The New Evangelization is meant to be new in it's ardor, new in it's methods, and new in it's expression," and later in his encyclical, Ecclesia de Eucharistia, when he called the Church to "cultivate a lively awareness of Christ's real presence, both in the celebration of Mass and in the worship of the Eucharist outside Mass; specifically with respect to Eucharistic Adoration, he wrote...."The worship of the Eucharist outside of the Mass is of inestimable value for the life of the Church."Through much prayer and the power of the Holy Spirit, Awaken Ministry was born. May God continue to guide and direct us each and every step of the way, and may everything we do be for the greater honor, glory and praise of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!Maureen Dierkes, Co-FounderGo to our website www.awakenministry.org for a schedule of events.
