Join us at Fall Retreat for a weekend getaway!

Connect with God: At Fall Retreat, we will explore how God is present in both our joys and anxieties, how God has power to heal and restore us and our communities, and how God gives us purpose in our lives and on campus. Whether you’ve studied the Bible for years, are unsure about faith and have no idea where to start, or are somewhere in the middle, we’ve designed this weekend for you. Come to have a fresh encounter with God and to make space to explore your questions. 

Enjoy time in nature: Hike, stargaze, play sports, explore! We’ll be at a camp in New Hampshire with time to relax, play, and take a break from classes. 

Make and deepen friendships: College can feel lonely. We will be with college students from across Greater Boston. Bring a friend from your campus, make new friends from your school, and connect other students from around the city through fun and real conversations that can continue after retreat.

The abundance of God overflows. His water never runs dry! However, this might not be everyone’s lived experience. Especially over the past two years as the lived experienced is encased with politics, race, violence, physical and mental health. God’s desire is for human flourishing but what does that look like today in the midst of these experiences?

At Fall Con, we are centering on God’s heart for people and for communities. It is a weekend for connection and chance to encounter Jesus in community with students across Greater Boston! You’ll have a blast sharing and hearing stories, along with diving into God’s story. In quiet alone or in community with many, there is space at Toah Nipi for you to ask questions and learn more about God. We can’t wait to gather in September and are expectant for how God will satisfy us!

Registration Cost $150

What does the future hold for our planet? What role will you play in caring for the environment?

EcoWild is not just a backpacking trip. We'll spend our time in conversation around global environmental influences and justice issues.

Jesus & Justice 2021 will be a hybrid program based in Boston for MA based college and university students seeking to actively grow in following Jesus with their lives when it comes to issues of systemic injustice. As a cohort, we will spend some time in Scripture, hear from fellow believers how justice is part of their career work, and partner actively with some of them in the ongoing work of extending Jesus’ love and shalom to communities across Boston.

Morning Gatherings will be in-person:

(9am-1pm, including lunch) COVID-precautioned in-person hands-on 25* person cohort of seeing, learning, and engaging with some of Boston's issues of injustice. Throughout the week, we will be hearing from local leaders how their faith in Jesus motivates them in their ongoing work for the betterment of systems and people. Each day we will partner with a different organization, moving through the week from learning history of people, systems, and how their stories are impacted by COVID (or exacerbated). We will be partnered to learn from and serve with various organizations: from organizations seeking to be living systems of Jesus’ hope in the city, to caring for immigrants, to public health, to youth and families, and to the environment. As a cohort we will be present, will listen, and will engage with what they are already doing, giving of our time and skills where invited.

Evening Gatherings will be online via Zoom:

(7-9pm) will be a time to debrief the day, hear from local believers or in Scripture read what God has to say about justice, and spend time in prayerful reflection on what we are learning as a cohort.

Students applying must BE FULLY RESIDING in Massachusetts as of June 1st 2021 without travel outside of the state from June 1st- duration of program (until June 18th). All participants must have their own housing arrangements, and accessibility by bus, T, or car to Boston for the duration of the week program. No housing will be provided as we are unable to host a residential component due to COVID restrictions at this time. Transportation to and from locations during the week will be provided for the morning session hours.

Join us as an embodied faith community pursuing Jesus' shalom for New England alongside our neighbors in Boston MA this summer!

*Due to current MA-COVID regulations, we cannot gather in a group larger than 25. If MA guidelines are alerted, we will welcome more participants.

Join students from campuses across Boston and pursue presence with God. In a year when we've experienced so much isolation and division, we invite you to find true hope in the reality that God is present with us by setting aside this weekend for retreat and fellowship. We encourage you to plan your work and assignments in advance so that you can fully step away from everyday life and explore what it means to be in God’s presence. Depending on where you are right now and your degree of comfort, this retreat will have BOTH a fully virtual option AND a small, chapter-specific, in-person pod of three’s and four’s option. Although we cannot change the circumstances of COVID, we hope this flexibility of how retreat is done will create space for you to meet Jesus. Friday, March 5th 7:00pm to Saturday, March 6th 9:00pm
