FUSE Event Highlights Fellowship and Faith

HOUSTON – There are some weekends that stay with you long after they are over, and FUSE was one of them.

For me, it was more than just an event where Seventh-day Adventist college students gathered in Texas. It was a chance to step away from the familiar, meet other young believers and be reminded that faith is something we are called to live out together.

Coming from a smaller church, the experience felt especially meaningful. I’m used to worshipping in a more intimate setting, so being in a space filled with so many young people who share the same faith was refreshing. One of the things that stood out to me most was the diversity in the room. It was encouraging to see people from different places come together with the same purpose. I also appreciated the energy of the service and the beautiful voices of the women who led the song service. Their singing added something special to the worship experience and made the evening feel uplifting.

One of the most memorable parts of FUSE for me was the healthy relationships panel. Hearing married couples share their wisdom and experiences gave the discussion a level of honesty and depth that made it especially impactful. The conversation about what it means to be equally yoked stayed with me long after the session ended. It resonated with us so much that we wanted to bring the topic back to Norman, Okla., so we could continue the conversation and share it with the youth who weren’t able to attend.

Overall, FUSE was a blessing. I left feeling encouraged, spiritually refreshed and grateful for the opportunity to learn, reflect and grow alongside other young people who are seeking God.
