Fall Conference: Sept. 25-27, 2009
"Meals with Jesus"
Rev. Richie Sessions
What one student said about last year's fall conference:
"Fall Conference last year was amazingly rejuvenating. It was nice to get away from the busyness of my first semester at Duke and be refreshed by ultimate frisbee, the blob, and the Holy Spirit. Through the fellowship that our group experienced, we began to bond and I was able to form deep relationships with my classmates. The speaker talked about God's gracious promises in Jesus and I left assured that He who began a good work in me, will bring it to completion when Jesus returns."
Dates: From September 25-27 Duke RUF will be joining other schools from across North and South Carolina at Camp Greystone in the Blue Ridge Mountains for a weekend of fellowship, fun, and rest.Cost: The cost of Fall Conference is $95, which includes room and board for the whole weekend.
