FOCUS IS ALREADY UNDERWAY AND REGISTRATION IS CLOSED.


FOCUS+

Focus+ is a special limited-registration add-on event for students who want to dive into a specially selected text. This year the teaching will present an overview of the book of Revelation. Focus+ is kept purposefully small; only 25 spots are available, so don't delay in registering if you'd like to attend.

This year Focus+ will take place between the two main Focus weeks. It will start at 4pm on Friday, May 11th and will conclude at 11am on Sunday, May 13th. Cost is $75.
