That's right! Passion '05 is coming to TORONTO! "Huh, what's?" you ask? Well, to keep the answer short, Passion Toronto is more than just a concert - it's a crazy awesome night of worship, teaching, and prayer to bring together students from throughout Toronto and southern Ontario - for followers of Jesus, but also for anyone who's curious to see just how unbelievably wild a party for God can be.

Not sure if you can make it? Well, you've got less than a week to decide! Passion is happening at the Ricoh Coliseum (at Exhibition Place) on Tuesday, November 22nd! The night officially starts at 7:30 PM, but doors open an hour earlier. There's sure to be a massive crowd waiting before then (rumour has it that the line will start at 8 in the morning, if not earlier), but do not be discouraged. I, for one, have a Chem test that day, but I am still making the trek afterwards!

This conference invites all university students and university-aged young people (age 18-25), as well as pastors and college ministry staff. So maybe you're asking yourself, "This concert-thing sounds WAY too good - what's the catch? How much will it cost me?" Answer: Maybe just bus fare. The cost is FREE - made possible through the generosity of other university students at previous Passion conferences. However, a pay-what-you-can offering will be collected to help Passion host future events like Passion Toronto in other cities around the world.

Our city of Toronto, is the first north of the border that The Passion has reached. The other two collegiate centrals were Boston and New York City.

Does this still sound surreal? I mean, world-renowned speaker, Louie Giglio and artists like Chris Tomlin and Matt Redman coming to TORONTO? But it's going to happen and here's some semi-proof: The Passion staff has already come to Hart House and met with campus leaders from across Toronto! That's right - our Hart House!

So BELIEVE! And be there!

Venue : The Ricoh Coliseum at Exhibition PlaceDoors open at 6:30 PM.

Night begins at 7:30 PM COST IS FREE, but space is limited (word has it that doors close at 5000 persons)
