This FREE event is designed for students and youth leaders to hang out, worship together, and learn about topics such as , apologetics (is the Bible true, does God exist?), Jesus and the Old Testament, helping friends who are struggling and contemplating suicide, following Jesus as a woman in our culture, and how to develop a deep prayer life.
