Awaken Church presents Common Thread. A storytelling event with food, live music from Zen Trembles, and more. We will be sharing stories that connect us all, as humans.

Our hope for this event is to encourage the community to embrace vulnerability, to shed light on topics that are not typically discussed in churches, and to connect and offer resources for those who relate to the stories that are shared.

This is an event born out of the reality that there is a lack of vulnerability within the community around us. We know there are a wide range of stories from our lives and the lives of people around us. We can so easily avoid challenging topics because we don’t know everything and we’re afraid to say something wrong. We know that raw vulnerability without intention can do more harm than good. Through this event, we seek the middle ground in order to partner with people who have experienced trauma/obstacles/hardship because we are those people too. We want to see you, to hear you, and to support you, wherever you are at and whatever you’ve been through.

The event will be free and no RSVP is required. We hope that you will invite your friends to this event and come with an open-mind to hear the challenging, yet hopeful stories from within our own community.

While the event will be free and no RSVP is required.

*Trigger Warning: While the purpose of this event is to create a space of vulnerability and promote healing, some stories will include mature topics, so it may not be suitable for all audiences.
