Our annual NWO NYI Fall Retreat is open to any student currently in 6th thru 12th grade. The goal is to build a deeper relationship with Christ by discovering different methods of spiritual formation. Naturally, that comes alongside periods of worship, fun and games, a dance party tradition, and more! (Not to mention Cross Oak's infamous milkshakes!)
We have purchased 25 tickets (value of $99 per ticket) for pastors and church leaders in our district to get immersed in what it means to become a multiplying church that makes disciples and sends out teams to start new works. Are you ready to join us in Naperville?
Big Day is Tuesday, February 20 from 10:00 am - 3:00 pm in Fairbanks Gym, at Cross Oak Camp.
Bi-Vocational Big Day is Saturday, February 24, 10:00 am - 1:00 pm in the Dorm Great Room.
Big Day is for all Pastors and developing Ministry Leaders and every Big Day is designed to
Inspire and Equip each of us to lead our churches and change the world. We strongly encourage
you to bring your locally licensed pastors and those who have expressed some kind of early call
to ministry because everything we do includes equipping and developing new leaders. These
are all-hands-on-deck events.
The District BLAST Program (Building Leaders and Sharing Talents) is guided by the rules and policies set forth by the Field BLAST event held at Mount Vernon Nazarene University (Early June each year) . The Field NYI Council, made up of the Field NYI President and the District Presidents from the 8 districts on the region, sponsors the event. Students that participate in the District BLAST have the opportunity to share their God given talents in a competitive setting. The top scoring participants are selected to represent the Northwestern Ohio district at the regional BLAST. Also, students experience leadership training that is designed to strengthen their relationship with Christ, challenging each one to be His leaders in their church and community.
The churches of Northwestern Ohio are joining together to bless our communities through Big Serve, April 19-21, 2024, with churches from across the United States. Projects include assisting local non-profit organizations such as shelters, food pantries, and senior adult services. Churches can volunteer with local schools and parks to assist with projects such as weeding, painting, and maintenance. Churches will bless and show appreciation to first responders, teachers, and veterans. Start planning your church's Big Serve now!
Bringing Heaven Down...
Jesus taught us to pray “your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven”
Jesus expects us to bring Heaven to Earth and allow His fallen creation to experience what He has for them. When we do, broken and sinful people are restored, the spiritual temperature in our communities gets raised, God is glorified, and His Kingdom expands!
Join us as we position ourselves through a commitment to holy living to experience His Kingdom come!
A training event to mobilize church pastors and leaders to multiply the church to reach Northwestern Ohio.
When: Monday – Wednesday, June 17-19 from 12:00-4:30 pm
