A LOT Make new friends Play Ping-Pong , Pool, Cards Study (if you must) Hike in 470 acres of nature So Let's Go! We all have a hope and a dream and all of us have seen hopes and dreams dashed because of circumstances and harsh realities. These three words —Awake . . . Alive . . . Free— often encompass the drive and passion of our existence on earth and sit within the DNA of all of us longing to wake up and be freed from the things that hold us back. In the stress of studies, uncertain futures and current realities we find that God also has a desire for us to be fully Awake, Alive and Free. As we long for the best life we can have, we will take a look at parts of the books of Ephesians and John and see the beautiful reminders that lead to the moments and relationships that keep us on the path of “life to the full”. Pastor Mike Westendorf , WELS Artist and Director of Awake and Alive 18-25 ministry, will lead the workshop.
