BC Winter Retreat 2026

Join us at BC Winter Retreat for our second term getaway! It will be an amazing weekend discovering Jesus alongside fellow students from SFU, UBC-Vancouver and UBC-Okanagan and other B.C. post-secondary campuses.



Our theme for this retreat getaway is Calling and Renewal In A Broken World. Join us as we explore what it looks like to participate with God in His work of bringing renewal and restoration to our world as we experience His work in our life. You can look forward to awesome main sessions with musical worship and teaching by our speaker.


Get to know other students during mealtimes, small group discussions and activities like spikeball, volleyball/basketball, and board games!


The cost of BC Winter Retreat includes accommodations in a heated lodge, all meals from Saturday breakfast through to Sunday lunch and activities. Ride tickets are sold separately.
