Overview

Mission

Awaken Dallas exists to ignite a movement of Spirit-filled disciples, who burn with first love passion for Jesus and are equipped to spread the gospel to the world in love and power.

What it reported doing in 2025

Awaken Dallas established our new church home located at 1901 Industrial Blvd, Colleyville, TX 76034. These program service expenses provide for the ongoing operation of our church home where we thrive within a spiritual family and community centered around Jesus, committed to first love passion and the practice of the presence of God. We started a house of prayer named House of First Love: a space weve created to love Jesus and let Him love on us; a place where His presence can dwell to refresh, heal, and reignite the hearts of His people. A place where first love can be kindled. It is a time to sit at His feet and listen to His words.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 89% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
