Jubilee Conference 2009: February 13-15

The Jubilee conference is a three-day experience like no other.

The music, worship and workshops not only introduce students to Jesus Christ, but are innovative, fun, and intense! Thousands of students will gather together to re-imagine how their Christian faith should inform the way they study, play, work and live out every area of life. In preparing faithful followers of Jesus, Jubilee is committed to the ripple effect each attendee will have in their communities. Are you?

God cares about every square inch of his creation. That includes colleges and universities, academic majors and future occupations. What does it look like to be faithful to Christ in these settings? How do you integrate your faith and your learning? Is there hope for our broken world? We don't want to settle for easy answers to tough questions.

The Jubilee Conference is designed to help you wrestle deeply with the challenges of being students of Jesus, and professors; citizens of His Kingdom, and of this world. Is a whole-life devoted to Christ and the common good, possible? The Jubilee Conference invites you to "come and see."

Looking to get your hands dirty and help our neighbors? Seeds of Hope is an urban Angligcan church that serves the communities of Garfield, Friendship, and East Liberty. Some of their activities include sports teams, dancing teams, tutoring, and summer camps.
