Retreats and Mission Trips
NIK Retreat
The Northern Illinois Koinonia college retreat is held fall and spring semester each year. Join for a weekend to get away and rest, grow closer to God, experience community, connect faith and life, deepen friendships new and old. NIK 56 will be held October 25th - 27th, 2024.
SEEK National Conference
SEEK is an invitation to explore life’s bigger questions: who we are, where we’re going and what we seek along the journey. SEEK encourages everyone to come explore faith, friendship, and the possibility of living differently — experiencing the love, hope and very real presence of Jesus Christ through His Church. Gather with thousands from all across the country for a time of prayer, fellowship, engaging talks, and inspiring entertainment.
Join us this January 1-5th, 2025 in Salt Lake City, Utah!
Mission Trips
SPRING | Come and serve with us. Each spring break, Newman students travel to Murfreesboro, TN for a week of fun, adventure, and building homes with Habitat for Humanity. Experience the joy that is found in giving of yourself.
SUMMER | Some things are worth being uncomfortable for; authentic encounters, real friendship, and serving something and someone greater than yourself. Join us on mission this summer, July 9-18, 2025, with our FOCUS missionaries as we travel to encounter and serve Christ in the poor. Applications open September 1st, 2024.
