Scott & Lydia Ingegneri
THE FOUNDERS
Before launching Awaken Ministries Int'l in July 2017, Scott and Lydia served as Lead Pastors of Grace North Church; a multi-site church in Phoenix, Arizona. Both Scott and Lydia were raised in ministry homes and a deep passion and response to a ministry call came at a young age for the both of them. The Ingegneri's met in 2001, married in 2003, and immediately began songwriting and leading worship together around the state of Arizona. Within months of being married they joined the church plant team for Grace North Church. Both Scott and Lydia received their pastoral licenses early on in their ministry journey. Scott was ordained in 2006 and Lydia in 2014. The Ingegneri's ministered in various capacities while on staff at Grace North. Scott served as Executive Pastor and Lydia served as Worship Pastor for 8 years before their installation as Lead Pastors in 2011. They have been incredibly blessed with four amazing children and considering ministering as a family their greatest treasure in life!
