At your campus, you will meet in-person three days a week for times of devotion, leadership teachings, and hands on ministry opportunities.There's no better way to grow in your relationship with God and with others from your campus. More details are available down below!

What if I’m on vacation for some of the days during 252?
We understand that things will come up and vacations are often planned in advance. To make sure you get the most out of this, we ask that you have a conversation with the Student Director at your campus before registering about any vacations or reasons you may miss 252.
