Homecoming & Family Weekend

October 3-5, 2025

Homecoming is the largest gathering of 91جزة« alumni all year long. We welcome alums and their families to campus for a weekend full of fun and meaningful events and activities. We worship, enjoy fellowship with each other, cheer for our teams, admire the talent of our current students and our fellow alums, recognize the purposeful lives we lead, and celebrate the faithful lives of those we have lost in the past year.

It is a powerful weekend, and we want as many alums as possible to join us on campus every year.
