The preaching theme for the four main worship services is “I Will Give You Rest.” The Symposium will explore this theme through four Gospel texts in our four main worship services. Breakout sessions, workshops, and retreats will be offered on a wide variety of topics that may complement or address this theme, but they are not necessarily centered on it.

A cancellation fee of $100 is retained, in addition to any pre-paid food options (there are no refunds for the $50 options). To cancel, please email worshipsymposium@calvin.edu. Cancellations cannot be accepted over the phone. Cancellations will be accepted through February 13, 2026.
