Since 1946, Intervarsity has been providing a place for college students to see, hear, and respond to God’s global mission at Urbana conferences. If you want to see the world in a whole new light, come to Urbana. You will learn about critical global issues from dynamic teachers, worship with thousands in one of the most diverse gatherings in North America, and hear missional students and recent graduates testify to God’s faithfulness to the ends of the earth.

There are many ways to spend five days of your winter break. But, if you want to be challenged by the spiritual and physical needs of the world, and get connected to opportunities to meet those needs, then sign up for Urbana 09. And bring your world-changing friends with you.
