Daytona Beach, Florida
July 22-26, 2019
Students start the day spending time with Jesus, learning about Him from the Bible and talking to Him in prayer. Students can do this on the beach or in the room, as long as everyone sticks together.
Next, we’ll all go to morning session. Imagine if all 14 campuses met for Fuse in one building and threw in some games and guest appearances. Sessions are kind of like that. But better.
After waking up in morning session, students go to community groups. In community groups, students from all over the state connect and have real talk. By this point, everyone is getting hungry.
Lunch is different every day, but it’s always delicious. After eating, students have free time to relax on the beach, go shopping, or lounge at the pool — whatever the entire room can agree to.
Each night, we come together for dinner and an evening session. We sing, we learn, and we pray. Then, it’s back to the room for small group time. And maybe a little sleep. Maybe.
Student tickets are $399. Volunteer tickets are $100.
