What is Summit?
What is Summit?
We are joining together with Power to Change and students from all over the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) for a weekend away! This year, Bridges' theme is: experience peace, embrace purpose, belong. We will rest, play, and seek wholeness. We will lean into knowing ourselves, being known by others, and discovering who God made us to be. We will explore our stories, our passions, and our purpose. And we will be together--building friendship, creating memories, and cultivating the kind of community we long for.
What will we be doing?
What will we be doing?
The weekend will be filled with meals together, beautiful nature (bonfire! stargazing!), music, rest & reflection, deep talks, exploring faith, and plenty of fun (canoeing! kayaking! sports!). We’ll share more about who we (Bridges) are as a community and the faith foundations that motivate us to build loving and meaningful cross-cultural friendships. If that sounds fun to you, please join us. All are welcome! Come create memories and friendships that last a lifetime.
Power to Change will host a parallel program at the same location with the theme “For Such a Time as This.” We will join them for some activities. They will have separate main sessions and workshops. You're free to join in on their plans at any time if you're interested.
