Campus Outreach’s ReCon gathers 300+ college students from the East Coast in the city of Washington, DC for four days. Each day is packed with impactful speakers, breakout seminars, fellowship, dynamic worship, fun activities and opportunities to explore the person of Jesus.

reimagining conference:

Is RECON the same as the CO New Years’ Conference?

We are so glad you asked…here’s the scoop!

On the final evening of the 2022 New Years’ Conference in Raleigh, NC, the Campus Outreach leaders from Charlotte, Charleston, DC, and Lynchburg held a private meeting. 

You could call it a REndezvous. We gathered to ask one question:

What would we change if we could REimagine CONference?

When we said “REimagine”, we meant more than just a REname, but less than a complete REmake. We thought of it like when you REmix a song. A REmix keeps the core components intact while REvising, REfreshing, and REnovating the overall vibe.  (See what we did there?)

RECON is the answer we came up with. 

Every component of RECON has been filtered through three core values: RELATE, RENEW, & RESPOND (oops, we did it again).

relate: Most Conferences are dominated by environments where everyone sits shoulder to shoulder facing a stage. Not at RECON. Theatre style seating will be replaced by round tables to encourage connection and discussion with the wonderful people you already know, and some amazing people you will soon meet. 

renew: CO Conferences have always been a place to immerse yourself in the life-giving and transformational Word of God. Whether it be through a main session talk, a breakout seminar of your choosing, or a friendly conversation on the way to dinner at Nando’s Peri-Peri Chicken; the goal remains unchanged that we would experience renewal from the inside out. 

respond: Nationwide taught us that “life comes at you fast”. RECON will teach us that conferences don’t have to do the same. RECON is committed to giving daily space to slow down, process what you have heard, and consider how to apply what you have experienced. Whether its a quiet personal moment or a time of processing with friends from your campus; having space to REspond is a key component of this Conference Remix. 

RECON is a Student Conference built around a safe space to RElate, a spiritual place to REnew, and a slow pace to REspond.

Hopefully at this point you have one question on your mind: How do I REgister? (Sorry, we couldn’t resist)
