The Apprentice Gathering 2021

For the past 9 years, The Apprentice Institute at Friends University has hosted a gathering of Christ followers focused on learning from leaders in Christian spiritual formation and ultimately drawing closer to Christ.

This year, our 10th anniversary conference promises a full line-up of incredible speakers, an interactive live podcast recording, small group spiritual direction intensives, participatory deep-dive workshops, dynamic worship, and much more. Sign-up today!

Morning and Afternoon Workshops are getting close to capacity.  Please contact me at jacob_smith@Friends.edu or call me at 316-295-5398 for information regarding workshop availability.

Masks will be required when indoors at the gathering, regardless of vaccination status. This precaution is important to ensure the safety of each other and Friends University students and staff, particularly considering we’re traveling in from all over the country. We know that masking has become a politically fraught issue, and we imagine this request may evoke diverse emotional responses. Our priority in this decision is to mitigate risk while still allowing the conference to continue in person. Masks will be provided if needed.
