MOVE 2025

Registration is OPEN

MOVE is a 5-day conference for rising 9th graders through graduating seniors that takes place in Salisbury, MD.

This Year: In Between

Life is lived in the IN BETWEEN. In between START and FINISH. TAKE OFF and LANDING. DOUBT and CERTAINTY. FEAR and COURAGE. LETTING GO and HOLDING ON. The IN BETWEEN is not for the faint of heart. It requires tenacity and determination. Choosing to never let go - no matter the hardship. Choosing to remain - even when others choose to walk away. And no matter what - choosing to focus. Not on ourselves, or on circumstances. Not on our losses, or on victories. But on HIM – the One who holds it all together. From the smallest grain of sand to the farthest unknown galaxy - And everywhere IN BETWEEN.

Join us this summer as we experience Jesus in the book of Hebrews and learn to bravely live in the here and now. In the IN BETWEEN. Run with endurance. Keeping your eyes on Jesus. Hebrews 12:1-2
