DNOW 2026

Discipleship NOW is an annual weekend retreat, where students grow together in their relationship with Christ and with each other while having a ton of fun! 

This year host homes are BACK! Church members are opening up their homes Friday night through Sunday morning to host each student small group as a way to encourage community and fellowship between students and their leaders! We are praying for generational discipleship to happen!

We will have large worship gatherings followed by large group activities on our campus throughout the weekend. On Friday and Saturday nights students will go to their host homes for continued group discussion and much needed sleep! We will close out the weekend in our Sunday Morning worship service. Our theme this year is DAY BY DAY!

The schedule for each session is still being worked out, but there will be 4 sessions: 

02/21 - Friday Night 6:00-10:00pm (Session 1)
02/22 - Saturday ALL DAY (Sessions 2 & 3)
02/23 - Sunday Morning 9:30am-12:00pm (Session 4)

Each session will have powerful worship & message, group discussion, and SQUAD WARS activities.

Registration cost is $50. Which covers a t-shirt, incredible worship experiences, host home support, and all the fun activities that coincide with SQUAD WARS.  BUT! There is an EARLY BIRD Registration of $40 that will expire on 01/04/26.
