Christian Fellowship
Events
Operation
Christmas Child: Each fall we put together
shoeboxes full of gifts for children around the world who would otherwise
not receive Christmas presents. This culminates in a wrapping party
in which we invite the whole campus to join
us in this Christmas activity. For more information about this program please
visit the OCC webpage
Leaders
Days: At the
end of each Christmas break, Leaders Days provides an opportunity for present and future leaders to learn and to make plans for the
upcoming
semester. This retreat is held at Camp Pinnacle outside of Albany
Urbana:
A once in a college lifetime opportunity, Urbana is a national missions
confrence held once every 3 years in Urbana, Illinios. Six of us from
the Hamilton Christian Fellowship drove more than 1,000 to Urbana '03
and had an amazing experience. For more information visit the Urbana
website.
"But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another" ~1 John 1:7
Here are a number of events that the Christian Fellowship participates in each year.
The
Journey: Each
October we go on a weekend retreat to Lake Saranac in the Adirondack
Mountains sponsored by InterVarsity Christian Fellowship,
along with other chapters
from eastern New York and Vermont. This retreat is open to
all students.
Basileia: A
week long summer retreat held at Lake Saranac after final
exams. A great way to begin the summer and meet other Christian students
from all over
New York and New Jersey. This retreat is open to all students.
Laundry Day: As part of our witness to the campus we periodically set up laundry stations and offer to do people's laundry for them free of charge.
