[Drum roll]  For the first time, the Awakening will be right here in the United States!  On September 15-17, 2011,
join the World Race community – alumni, family, and friends – for a
time of worship, teaching, and remembering at Adventures in Missions’s
headquarters in Gainesville, Georgia.

 

The Awakening gathers together people who want to mobilize a
generation to be his will and bring his kingdom.  As it’s been just over
five years since the very first World Race squad launched, the
Awakening 2011 will be a time to remember. . . 

as a community, the stories from the Race;

as a generation, what the Lord has done;

as a movement, who we are called to be.

Here are some places where you can find some answers to your questions, like:
— Wait, what is this, again? 
— How will you know that I’m coming?

“So what can I do to spread the word?” We’re glad you asked! Here are some ways to help us out:

  • Go to our Facebook Event page (not a substitute for registration!) and write on the Wall.
  • Send this blog post to a friend.
  • Tweet and/or post this on Facebook:
    “It’s here and you’re invited. The Awakening 2011 in Gainesville, GA! http://ow.ly/4pyvg” 
  • Plan a reunion with your squad-mates. 
It reignited that fire, passion and desire in my heart for Him and for His Kingdom.
— Katie Hannon, October 2009 World Race alumna, on the Awakening 2010.
What about you? What could the Awakening 2011 do for you?


At this point, you may remember that the previous two Awakenings
gathered current World Racer together in one place and you wonder if
this means that they’re coming to the U.S. Sadly, due to the logistical
challenges of getting hundreds of people from all over the world into
one place, as well as our heart to make the Awakening as feasible for
the growing number of alumni, the Awakening will be for World Race (and
Real Life, and other AIM) alumni, friends and family (we’re sorry).
We’re a growing movement and we’re learning this as we go along — thank
you for your understanding!
