  • Yes! This conference is designed for students to learn what it means to be filled and empowered by the Holy Spirit.

  • This conference is designed for students and the pastors and leaders who invest in them. Parents are welcome to attend as leaders if they’re bringing a group, but the weekend is primarily for students.

  • For safety, students are expected to stay on campus for the full conference. If a student needs to leave early, we ask that they coordinate directly with their youth pastor or group leader.

  • Bring a Bible, notebook, pen, water bottle, and money for food or merch. Most of all—come ready and expectant for God to move.

  • Yes! Conference merch will be available for purchase on-site.
