About the Event
What is Episode WKND?
Episode is a two-day student event hosted at Thomas Road Students that brings together student ministries from across our community. Students from the same schools, teams, and neighborhoods all coming together for a weekend.
It’s a catalytic weekend designed to help students see Jesus clearly, understand the gospel personally, and live it out boldly in their schools, homes, and communities.
Every year, hundreds of students from churches around the Lynchburg area gather for worship, teaching, and small group experiences that point to one central truth – Jesus changes everything.
