ONE WEEKEND. ONE NAME.

DNOW Student Conference

DNOW is a yearly gathering of Collin County 6th-12th graders from local churches who unite for an unforgettable weekend. This is an opportunity for students to encounter Jesus, grow in Christian community, and of course, have lots and lots of fun.

DNOW 2026: “Destination Heaven.” This year’s theme reminds us that as followers of Christ, we’re meant to live like heaven is our home (because it is!). Let’s fix our eyes on eternity by walking in faith, pursuing holiness, and setting our hearts on things above.

For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands.

2 Corinthians 5:1

Special guests

Nick Vujicic
Jake Bechtold
