AWAKe Café
Since 2019
Vision
AWAKE, strategically located 3 blocks from Wayne State University, home of over 17,000 students from 70 different countries, is more than a coffee shop. Our vision for this café is that it will be a place where people awake to the love of God and the Gospel message through the care and service of our ministry team and the conversations that happen here.
Sharing the Gospel
AWAKE Lending Library
Your donation to Awake Café’s lending library will help us extend the Gospel in Detroit. This Christian library has already had an impact on the community, and we are looking forward to increasing the number of titles we offer.
