About this year's theme:
As Christians, we are called to be continually available and pliable to the work, activity, and movement of God in and through our lives. We, should have a ready “Yes, Lord!” upon our lips even before God makes a request. We call it the “pre-decided yes”—deciding to answer in obedience and humility to God in every area of life even before He asks.
Join Ellerslie alumni from around the world in a week of seeking the heart of God as we pursue the pre-decided yes in our lives, marriages, families, jobs, churches, free-time, and every other arena of life.
Come and be refreshed in God’s Word, enjoy rich and joyous fellowship with other serious believers, experience greater peace and focus, and have a lot of fun.
$995
pay what you can pay!
The regular price for the weeklong summit would normally be $995. But we have decided to offer this training summit on a donation-basis.*
When you register for the Ellerslie Alumni Summit, you will have the opportunity to input whatever amount you are able to afford.
*Please Note: if you are able to contribute the full price of $995 (or more) this will greatly help the ministry of Ellerslie and enable us to continue offering this Alumni Summit on a donation-basis so more alumni can participate. That said, money is not our chief concern in offering this Summit — rather, it is gathering together to seek Jesus! So no matter your situation, we encourage you to register for this powerful training experience and choose the donation amount that works for you!

— Chelsey H.

Extend your stay!
Enjoy Additional fellowship during the summer summit
August 2–7
Stay up to five extra days on the Ellerslie Campus (Sunday — Thursday). Our alumni have often told us how much they love this additional time away from life's distractions — enjoying the fellowship, mountain excursions, and longer times of stillness with Jesus. Consider staying a bit longer and enjoying these added bonuses made available during that time*:
Participate in Daily Thunder — daily teaching, worship, and prayer.
Connect with friends from your semester and fellowship with other alumni.
Experience an adventure in the Rocky Mountains.
Enjoy bonus fireside talks with the Ellerslie staff and other alumni.
Have time alone or join others to study, worship, and delight in Jesus!
*There isn't formal teaching scheduled during this extension, just plenty of time for you to enjoy Jesus and each other. While we will have optional activities and some teaching available, how you enjoy this time is entirely up to you!
Alumni Summit FAQ
Yes, the Ellerslie Alumni Summit is for all Ellerslie and Bravehearted alumni. If you have attended one of our Ellerslie or Bravehearted programs of any length (in person or online) you are welcome to join us for the Alumni Summit!
We are only offering the summit to our Ellerslie and Bravehearted alumni. But if you’d like to attend, we encourage you to check out our 1-week and 5-week programs here. Once you are registered for an upcoming Ellerslie program, you will be able to register for the Ellerslie Alumni Summit.
The Ellerslie Alumni Summit would typically cost $995, but because so many are facing financial uncertainty, it is being offered on a donation-basis only. If you are able to donate the full retail amount (or higher) this will be a tremendous blessing to us and many others. But if not, we encourage you to register and pay what you are able! We do not want finances to stand in the way of your ability to participate! (Please note: tax deductible donation receipts can only be provided for donation amounts higher than $995.)
Yes! If you joined us for the Special Online Training (in April 2020) this will be a great foundation to take into the Ellerslie Alumni Summit. However, the Ellerslie Alumni Summit will go much deeper into some of the topics covered in the Online Training and will also offer plenty of fresh, new content to equip you in spiritual longevity, impacting others, and victorious Christian Living. Whether you joined us for the Special Online Training in April or not, we believe you’ll be tremendously blessed and deeply impacted by the depth of in-person discipleship that will happen during the week-long Ellerslie Alumni Summit.
At this time, the fellowship week is available only to those who attend the Ellerslie Alumni Summit.
While you are welcome to take your studies deeper and use your time here at Ellerslie intentionally, there will not be any required homework. Additional “take it deeper” resources may be supplied for those who are interested.
Our kitchen is happy to provide both gluten-free or dairy-free meal options upon request with every meal. Please email [email protected] and notify us of your request.
No, the fellowship extension will not have a formal teaching schedule, but activities and sessions will be available at set times for you to jump in and participate if you would like.
Great question. Daily Thunder is a daily teaching series that we host every day at our Ellerslie Campus and is later turned into a podcast of our listeners. You’ll get the opportunity to participate in our live studio audience during the summit. Tune in here.
