Metro Area Day

Orange Divot Divider-04.png

Each semester, we host a Metro Area Day for InterVarsity students from around the Twin Cities. You can come, your friends from campus can come, and your friends who go to a different campus can come! This is a great opportunity for you to grow in your faith around a big group of college students from other campuses who are doing the same thing. 

​

Join us this fall on Saturday, September 21st at Beautiful Savior Lutheran Church in Plymouth, MN (5005 Northwest Blvd, Plymouth, MN 55442).

​

We'll spend in community, worship, Scripture study, and prayer. And, we'll eat some great food together and choose breakouts that are specifically interesting to you. This is always an exciting Saturday of connect with God and others!

FAQs  

What will we be doing? We get to connect with students from our own campus, students from other campuses, experience great worship, quiet times with God, amazing food, breakout sessions, and fun. By the end of the day, you will have grown in community with others from your campus and in your relationship with God. 

 

How much does this cost? Nothing - it's free!

​

How do I get there? Your campus will coordinate rides!

​

Can I invite my friend from another campus? Definitely. Just have them sign up at this link.

​

What will worship be like? Taylor Grimbso, an InterVarsity staff, will lead our time - it's always amazing to worship with other college students! 

​

What if I have a conflict for part of the time? No worries. We encourage you to come for the full time so that you get the most out of it, but if you have a conflict you can't work around, just let your staff know.

​

What are the breakout sessions? You get to choose one breakout session. Here is what we are offering this year: 

​

Getting Settled Spiritually: You're at college, but you might be wondering how to find a church, get in a quiet time rhythm, or invest in a Christian community. Join Tobi Osiberu and Deborah Mengesha, University of Minnesota alumni, to hear from their experiences and workshop what might be helpful for you. 

​

Having a Caring Impact on Campus: We long for our InterVarsity communities to be spaces of transformation not just for you, but also for your campus. But what does that look like? Whether you're a small group leader or a member of a small group wanting to make a difference on campus, this is the breakout for you. Led by Lucas Wencl, InterVarsity staff who has been making a difference on college campuses since his freshman year in 2016.​

​

Living Authentically as a Christian: Many of you spend a lot of your time in environments where there aren't a lot of other Christians. How do you live out your faith authentically while cultivating real friendships with non-Christians around you? â€‹Taylor Grimsbo is an InterVarsity staff with gifts in evangelism, but more importantly, she's a great friend to others and person to learn from on this topic. 

​

Self Care for InterVarsity Leaders: At this time of year, we know that it can sometimes feel hard to know how to care for yourself as you are caring for and investing in others. Every fall, student leaders are blessed by this breakout with Joel and Julie Stegman, pastors at Resurrection City church in St. Paul. If you want to learn how to nurture your soul and relationship with God as you lead others, go to this breakout! (For current InterVarsity leaders only). 

​

Leaving a Legacy: It's your senior year, and while your mind is full of all of your potential plans for the future, you want to be present and make a difference on your campus right now, as well. Join some recent InterVarsity alumni from the University of Minnesota, Maame Amma Adabor and Olivia Bigabwa, to discuss and consider how you might leave a spiritual legacy on campus while you discern what God has next for you (graduating seniors only).
