As one event in 7 locations, each city might look a little different, but you’ll always be connecting with God, connecting with others, and learning how to take the next steps in your spiritual journey.

Here are a few things you can expect at every location:

Worship - Experience exciting live worship with a full band and hundreds of other students singing alongside you.

Teaching - Speakers in main sessions will engage your heart and mind, and challenge you to go deeper in your faith.

Community - You’ll get to spend time with friends and meet new people, especially through your Path.

Outreach & Service - There will be one afternoon of community outreach that includes training on how to share your faith. (You might be outside, so pack accordingly!)

Paths - Paths are a way to personalize your Winter Conference experience. The unique content of each Path complements the main sessions by helping you connect with God and grow in your faith alongside others in a similar place on their journeys. There are four Paths to choose from:

Explore - The Explore Path is a safe space to share, ask questions, and engage with others as you explore what you believe.

Inspire - The Inspire Path is for any follower of Jesus to focus on how to go deeper in your faith and learn how to connect with God in new ways.

Multiply - The Multiply Path will help you make an impact on your campus and grow as a leader.

Beyond - If you are graduating in the next 12 months, the Beyond Path will help you prepare for life after graduation and discover how to discern where God is calling you.

Outreach & Service - There will be one afternoon of community outreach that includes training on how to share your faith. (You might be outside, so pack accordingly!)

Any student who is interested in exploring what they believe or growing in their faith is welcome at Winter Conference. Many college students involved with Cru attend, but there are also students from churches or those involved in other Christian organizations. High school students and any non-student young adult are also welcome to come and experience how Winter Conference can help them move toward Jesus.

No worries. You'll meet lots of new people in your Path and during community times. Many people attend not knowing anyone and leave with new friends.

Lodging in a conference hotel is included in the cost. You are guaranteed housing if you indicate you need it during online registration and pay the required deposit. You’ll share a room with other students (usually four to a room) and be able to preference your roommates, though there is a chance you might room with someone you don’t know yet. Check your location page for which hotels are hosting the Winter Conference you’re attending.

All locations offer a commuter option.

No. Students usually grab food at the many restaurants near the hotel.

Winter Conference is a safe place to explore your faith, whatever your spiritual background may be. The Explore Path is designed specifically for you and will give you time to wrestle with what you believe alongside people who are asking the same questions.
