The Event

The Event is a weekend event for high school students in grades 9-12 on the campus of Ozark Christian College. The Event encourages and equips those who minister to youth and challenges youth to pursue life on mission with God, practice Christian service, and build Christian character at a young age. The Event also recruits more workers for the harvest field, engaging them in Ozark’s mission to train for Christian service. We will leave Thursday, November 2nd, and will return Sunday, November 5th.

This year’s theme is “to be continued”. We want this weekend experience to reveal to students the call that Jesus gave for us to continue his ministry, through the gift of the Holy Spirit allowing us to accomplish this mission. If we could put the messages for the weekend into one sentence, it would read: We are the continuation of Jesus’ ministry, empowered by the Holy Spirit to be his witnesses to the ends of the earth.

FAQ

LEADERS
Our leaders attending The Event with us are the same volunteers who lead and serve at Wednesday Night Live every week. They are all background checked and go through extensive training within TCC Students in order to be qualified to lead students well.

We promote safety by carefully background checking every leader who serves in our ministry. We also have very specific guardrails in place that leaders are aware of and are expected to follow such as never being alone with a student.

TRANSPORTATION
In order to keep costs down, we look for volunteers to lend us a vehicle or multiple vehicles that can accommodate our group.

Lastly
We will be staying at an Airbnb in Carl Junction (8 min away from Campus) on campus.
