The Olive Grove


The Olive Grove Prayer Ministry
“On the other side there was an olive grove, and He and his disciples went into it. Now Judas, who betrayed him, knew the place, because Jesus had often met there with His disciples.” John 18:1-2

Olive Grove Mission
To provide for students a place of rest, Reflection and rejuvenation in Jesus Christ

Olive Grove Purpose
Because we need to stay connected with Christ and others, during the week.
Because we know that the enemy is always trying to disconnect us from Christ and others.

“I am the Vine, you are the branches. When you’re joined with me and I with you, the relation intimate and organic, the harvest is sure to be abundant. Separated, you can’t produce a thing.” John 15:5 (The Message Translation)
