The Nazarite Intensive and Summer Mission Experience have been intentionally structured around the following principles: biblical instruction, loving community, and intensive watches of prayer. There will be Biblical teachings that lay out a scriptural grid for the importance of contending intercession and a lifestyle of fasting as well as understanding for the days that we live in and how to respond believers. The schedule is designed not only to develop individuals, but a team who will grow in God and in loving one another. Community life is an essential component of student life. Students are not just part of an instructional and outreach setting, but are situated in the context of a spiritual family with small groups for intimate reflection and relationship building. The schedule also prioritizes focused and united times of prayer during the training and activation portions. You will gain a burden for the things of God in the nations in a special way during these extended times of prayer.

Housing during Nazarite Intensive and the Summer Mission Experience reflects the core value of community within Contend. Students will live in dorm-style housing where they will eat together, have fun together, grow in relationship with each other, and go deep in encountering God during free time.

For those only attending the five day Nazarite Intensive portion, Contend will be providing shuttles to and from the Denver Airport. Students are responsible for buying flights in and out of the Denver International Airport. 

For those attending both the training and activation portion abroad, Contend will be providing shuttles from the Denver Airport upon your arrival. Contend will be purchasing your international flight from Denver to the respective nations and back to a large Airport hub (to be announced). Students will be responsible for buying flights into Denver International Airport, and from the large Airport hub back home.
