"Nothing happens, unless first we dream"
Carl Sandburg
Be a part of Imagine 2025 as we gather as one whole tribe of True North – all ages and locations! Imagine is a festival for meeting with God and one another. Imagine is about gathering around fires and tables, breaking bread and sharing real stories. It is a weekend of passionately pursuing God in worship and in His Word. Over three nights and two days, we create space to step away from our routines and toward the Presence of God, allowing Him to shape us for renewal. You will leave refreshed and renewed, inspired and equipped for the next leg of your journey.
God can do immeasurably more than all we could ask or imagine, so why not create space for fresh imagining of what He could do in and through you?
