Events from before

Here’s a taste of what we’ve done, which gives a preview of what will be coming in 2025-2026.

Summer Conference

We spent a week on beautiful Catalina Island, learning about Jesus, worshiping, resting, and growing deep friendships. It was an amazing place to hike, kayak, swim, play games, be still.

May 19-23, 2025

BCM West Conference 2024: This Is Us!

When Black Students Belong, Believe and Become God's People on Campus

We believe that the call to Black students to be witnesses on campus begins with their encounter with God, who knows them, loves them, and invites them to be community with one another. BCM 24 is a spiritual investment in students where they are challenged to apply their faith in every aspect of their lives.

February 23-25, 2024.

International Student Conference

In April 2024

On Catalina Island

Fall & Summer Con

Fall Con (late September) and Summer Con (mid-May) are opportunities for students to have a relaxing, fun, spiritually-rich time at Catalina Island! We worship the Lord, study Scripture, hike, kayak, and otherwise have fun and relax while spending quality time with each other.

Urbana Missions Conference

InterVarsity hosted a huge student missions conference in December 2022 to help mobilize students into God’s global work. The next Urbana will be December 2025. Find out more here.

Black Students Conference & International Student Conference

Each spring, Black students from SoCal have an awesome weekend together, worshiping God, growing as followers of Jesus, and being empowered to serve Christ on campus. Spring 2024 dates TBD.

The SoCal International Student Conference is an annual gathering for international and immigrant students of all cultural and religious backgrounds. The conference takes place in a beautiful private cove on Catalina Island. The weekend activities include Bible teaching, musical worship, good food and snacks, a kayak race, dancing, and much more.
