Parents and Families

Family Weekend

October 31–November 2, 2008


Think ahead to late October: It’s midway through the semester, and you’re eager to reconnect with the son or daughter you sent to Bethel. Believe it or not, the feeling might be mutual!

Family Weekend (formerly Parents Weekend) is the perfect chance for a get-together. We’ve planned three days of fun and meaningful opportunities to catch up with your Bethel student and taste a slice of campus life. 

Take in a great sports rivalry, enjoy a top-notch concert, worship together in chapel, sample a Bethel class, and share meals in the Dining Center. Jump into all the activities or just a few; keep busy or just relax and talk—we know every family is unique! And there are special prayer times plus “mini-classes” designed just for parents, with tools to help your student mature and prepare for life beyond college. 

Bring the whole family! Grandparents, aunts and uncles, and/or siblings are welcome. There is something for everyone on the agenda. We hope to see you soon at Family Weekend!
