Toronto Campus Trip to Athens, Georgia for the East Coast ICMC


On July 7-10, a bus filled with 25 students ranging from high school seniors to university students along with our campus leaders, Marty and Rita Udall, embarked on an 18-hour ride to Athens, Georgia to be a part of the East Coast International Campus Ministry Conference (ICMC).

The weekend was truly inspiring, fun and encouraging as 1,400 students came together to worship God, listen to His Word be powerfully preached, participate in a 5K run/walk to raise money for Africa and enjoy a time of awesome fellowship. This year the theme was “Deeper” - calling each one of us to get deeper in our love for God, for the lost and with one another, deeper in the Word, deeper in our character and deeper in our convictions. It was an event that truly allowed the campus ministry to draw even closer as a family, build new friendships and new memories, but also a time that truly challenged each one of us to reflect on where we stood before God. God has called us higher to be radical in all aspects of our Christianity, especially in our devotion to God, to each other, in evangelism and in prayer.

This year we believe that God will do immeasurably more than we can ever imagine! He is the one that will help us to build deep roots, to climb higher and as a result have a life-long passion that will bring glory to God.

ICMC Theme Scripture: Ephesians 1:9-10
“And he made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ, to be put into effect when the times will have reached their fulfillment—to bring all things in heaven and on earth together under one head, even Christ.”
