Conference Schedule
The finalized conference schedule is here to hopefully answer all of your burning scheduling questions! It’s available here on the staff page of the Vision website or you can save the image below.
We are excited to announce that there will be a rodeo this year! Additionally we will have a touring afternoon in Dallas on December 31 that will be combined with campus time. Finally, we are excited to bring back seminars for a second year in a row. If you have questions regarding the conference schedule, please email Lizzie Edwards. A great snack for her is bananas with peanut butter.
*Please note: Do not share this schedule directly with students, as there is sensitive content. A more generalized conference schedule is listed on the main Vision page for student.
Bridges Opportunities Dinner
The Bridges Opportunities Dinner at Vision23 is an event intended to help mobilize believing students and/or key volunteers toward opportunities to serve with Bridges as interns (both in the US and internationally), full time staff and/or part time staff. Our time will be most relevant for Christian Juniors, Seniors, Graduate students, or key volunteers considering future employment. Think of the multiplying disciples whom you would want to work with!
Bridges Opportunities Dinner: December 29, 5:30-7:00 pm EST
Register HERE
Some believing students may hear about this through the Vision registration. If there is a student or volunteer from your campus that you want to consider for Bridges employment opportunities, please encourage them to sign up using the link above! If you want to accompany anyone to the dinner please register yourself, as well.
Invite students by sending them this invitation graphic!

Volunteering at Vision
Do you have ministry partners or family and friends with hearts for international students and live in the Dallas/Fort Worth area? Vision cannot take place without the help of many volunteers, especially on December 28, the first day of the conference. If you know someone who may want to volunteer, please forward this link to them to get registered. Agnes Wang will serve as our Vision Volunteer Coordinator and will be available to answer any questions you/they have about volunteering!
