Celebrating our freedom on this Memorial Day; a freedom that was bought by the willing service and sacrifice of those who came before. Thank you to all the fallen soldiers who gave the ultimate for our freedom. May we always remember, and never compromise.
Proud to be an American.

Listen live on KICK 92.3 FM and on https://www.youtube.com/ to find out how to spot manipulative tactics selling the high paying bias, and learn how to develop foundational truths to challenge them.

What did you guys think of Mr. Edward Bernays, nephew of Signmund Freud and his "invisible governors"?

"The Conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and options of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country...We are governed, our minds are molded, our tastes are formed, our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of...It is why who pull the wires which control the public mind."

Tune in to hear more on Fridays from 4-5pm on KICK 92.3FM or on on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/

Last night was AMAZING! So many stories of hope, encouragement, and a reminder that you're not alone! Last night on my way to set up the masquerade our office received a voicemail from someone who was that morning desperately crying out to God for help and didn't know where to turn. That person jumped on socials and saw our event, following that to our webpage where they learned about Awaken360s mission and services. From there they contacted our people and now have hope. That person woke up desperate feeling alone, but now knows where support and change can be found without the red tape. If we accomplish nothing else, we come away knowing we impacted one and one is where it all starts.

A special thanks to all of those who made last night possible including, but not limited to:
Sonshine's Royal Ballroom with Don McCarty,
Lynn Thornton, Danny Miranda and Zuzanna Miranda, Victoria Medlock, Kathy Brazeal, and Seth and Catie Sims.
Stardust Ballroom and Louie Michael, Blue Iguana Car Wash, Paladin Tattoo and Piercing, Springfield Cardinals, The Skyn Spot, HD House Cleaning, HyVee, Pink & White Nail Studio, Craft Axe Throwing, Essential Yoga Studios, and all of the AWAKEN360 staff, Board members, and volunteers.

Send us your pics! We'd love to add them to our photo album for all of our annual masquerade balls coming in the future.

WHY THIS MATTERS?

Every 45 seconds, one person takes their own life worldwide.

In the United States alone, one person commits su***de every 11 minutes.

Men are 4 times more likely than women to commit su***de, and are 2 times less likely to ask for help.

80% of su***des are men; someone’s brother, father, husband, or son.

Su***de is the 2nd leading cause of death in youth ages 15-24.

This is why we are will be there on April 23rd from 6-9p. Because it takes an abundance of courage to step out from behind the masks we wear and say this is not okay. I need help, I am not okay.

Your support at this event, will save a life tomorrow.

Wherever you are, no matter the circumstance, you are loved right where you are at. No change necessary to be welcomed into the arms of Peace. He walks along the path with you every step of the way and loves you even when you do not love Him. Arms wide open he came to save the thief hanging next to him and the soldier nailing him to the cross. He came to save you. He came to save me.

No prerequisites required.

Death is finished.
