College Retreats

These retreats engage the college mind in topics relevant to campus life, worldviews, the Scriptures, the Lutheran confessions, evangelism and mission on campus, the advance and defense of the Christian faith as well as worship and praise of God through the rich Reformation traditions of the church.

There were three Christ on Campus Retreats held in February (though the final one had to unfortunately be canceled as the speaker could not make the trip)

  • University Lutheran Church & Student Center, Bloomington, IN
    Speaker: Craig Parton, "In Defense of the Biblical Gospel."
  • First Lutheran Church, Knoxville, TN
    Speaker: Dr. Gilbert Meileander, "What does it mean to be Human?"
  • St. Paul Lutheran Chapel & Student Center, Iowa City, IA
    Speaker; Rev. Dr. Ronald Feuerhahn, "The Ecumenical Movement."
Feeling left out? Don't be. There are three more yet this Spring and more are being planned for this coming Fall. Please check out the below:
