Don’t miss out! NITOC 2023 starts on Sunday, May 21st at 2:30 pm PDT. Parents and students can check in and dorms will be available. Keep this in mind when making your flight and housing arrangements. Sunday afternoon will be a great time to connect with Stoa friends from across the country and get familiar with the Concordia University campus! If you pre-ordered a t-shirt or a hoodie, today’s the day to pick it up!
Bring your picnic dinner or order a boxed meal on the NITOC website to enjoy On the Green. Be sure to bring a beach towel, blanket, or beach chair to sit on as you enjoy the warm California sunshine. There will be a couple of dessert vendors on hand for you to purchase a sweet to end your meal. We will then enjoy time together at the Welcome to NITOC 2023 opening! This will include worship music and a Sunday night message.
