There is not a square inch in the whole of creation over which Christ, who is Sovereign of all, does not cry: “Mine!” — Abraham Kuyper
THE JUBILEE CONFERENCE
Jesus Christ calls us to follow Him with our entire lives. Discover how at Jubilee: a conference for college students who want their lives to mean more.
February 21-23, 2025 | Pittsburgh, PA
what we do
The Jubilee Conference equips students to be redemptive leaders in every vocation and every area of life. The speakers, practitioners, and resources at Jubilee help students connect the vital dots between their work, their Christian faith, and their purposes.
Create
We love college students and believe Jesus changes people’s lives. The Jubilee Conference was created to share the hope of Jesus Christ’s resurrection and invite the next generation into a faith that speaks to every area of life.
Invite + Host
We invite college students (and many others!) from across the nation to engage with the Biblical narrative of Creation, Fall, Redemption, and Restoration. At Jubilee, we offer a wide variety of opportunities to engage with rich Biblical content and have conversations about what robust faith looks like in every sphere of their lives.
Send
Jubilee is not just a weekend. We send attendees back to their lives with the charge to live Jubilee. When attendees return to their campus, job, life, family, etc., they take what they learned with them and invite others into this charge as well.
While designed for college students, Jubilee also welcomes young professionals, graduate students, volunteers, and ministry partners. Join us in February 2025 to discover your place in God’s Kingdom plan.

WHY JUBILEE?
When Jesus announces the beginning of his ministry, he points to the year of Jubilee: “I have come to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor, to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.” [Luke 4]. Jesus points to the Year of Jubilee [Leviticus 25] as the picture of redemption and wholeness. We invite students to follow Jesus and to surrender to his work of redemption. The work that God is doing in and through Jesus is a gift and a call to live into this cosmic work of restoring all things.
Jubilee is hosted by the CCO (Coalition for Christian Outreach).
-
The CCO is a campus ministry movement that grew out of partnership with the local church to reach college students for Jesus Christ. CCO ministry has since grown into a ministry that influences not only students for Christ, but universities and communities as well. We estimate that the ripple effect of CCO ministry has extended to over a million people all over the world.
The first Jubilee Conference (then titled Chatham Center Weekend) was hosted at the Chatham Center in 1976. In 1977, the conference moved to the William Penn Hotel and was renamed Jubilee. Since then, Jubilee has transformed into the conference it is today and is hosted at the convention center in Pittsburgh.
Join us in sharing the hope of Jesus Christ with the next generation.
