Missions
“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
— Acts 1:8 (NIV)
Awaken is honored to support international and local missionaries alike as we seek to fulfill the Great Commission and bring the good news of Jesus Christ to all people.
International Missionaries
Katie Boley
Ras Al Khaimah, United Arab Emirates
Katie is sent by Awaken Church to Ras Al Khaimah, UAE for a year long women's apprenticeship at a healthy international church called Ras Al Khaimah Evangelical Church. Throughout this year, Katie will receive solid, foundational training in doctrine and firsthand cross-cultural experience in a local church in a multinational city. By God's grace, she will grow in her ability to teach women the Bible. This will equip her for her role of teaching women the Word as she hopes to join her teammates in Asia who are working towards planting a church among the unreached. Please email her if you would like to be added to her newsletter!
Brendan & Allie Palmer
Wycliffe Bible Translators (JAARs)
Brendan & Allie are Wycliffe members and serve in aviation roles at JAARs in Waxhaw, NC. One of JAARS' themes is Making Bible Translation Possible. Technology is improving efficiency of Bible translation, however, terrain in remote areas can be a major barrier for the translation work. Aircraft are often the best mode of getting missionaries and supplies to these locations. The Palmers help to keep the work going by improving, upgrading, and maintaining the aircraft needed for reaching the unreached.
Brendan uses his mechanical engineering background to help tailor aircraft to improve operations for rigorous environments. Allie uses her avionics experience to improve and upgrade the critical electronic, radio, and safety systems of the aircraft.
