You are welcome to participate in one or all the intensives individually, or participate in the whole 10 week Transit Fuel (that includes all three plus being part of the Source BR's summer community)

 














Transit Fuel & Intensives

To provide entry points to build relationship with 24/7-prayer, experience Boiler Room communities, see and participate urban outreach, learn the foundations for effectiveness and longevity, and hear the many layers of our story.

Thank you for your interest in the 24/7 Transit Fuel and intensives. We're excited to offer three different 4-8 day intensive gatherings/trainings this summer along with the 10 week Transit Fuel (internship) that will include all of them. We hope to have several individuals and leaders from several different Boiler Rooms be part of hosting and teaching at all three intensives. Weather you can join us for just one of the intensives or the full 10 weeks, it is a great opportunity to experience, build relationships, get to know individuals in the 24/7 national community, and learn foundational values.

Each of the intensives will have different focuses. Individuals are welcome to come for 1, 2 or all 3 of them. Along with all three intensives, the 10 week Transit Fuel will give a more in depth experience, relationship building, and teaching of values and being part of a Boiler Room Community. It will begin with the 24/7 National Gathering and then the rest of the Transit Fuel (along with the UMT and the Drum & Easel Art Intensive) will be hosted at the Source Boiler Room in Minneapolis.

Transit Fuel: 10 week internship Minneapolis 5/17-8/2

3 intensives (24/7 National Gathering, UMT, Drum&Easel Art Intensive) -

2 tracts: 1) Urban Outreach / Prayer - 2) the Arts

TF will be an intense 10 weeks in which you will get to know and meet individuals from 24/7 around the country and around the world. Each of the three intensives consist of a heighten schedule with pilgrims coming to join from around the country. Between the intensive weeks, you will be joining the Source Boiler Room Community rhythm, living in a community house near the Fallout, participating in a daily rhythm of prayer and outreach, and sit in on weekly gathering times that will feature more in depth teaching from a variety of leaders and urban neighbors that have given their lives to reach out and live amongst urban diversity.

TF participants will also be given the option of choosing a focus of interest. The 2 focus offered will be 1) Urban Outreach / Prayer & 2) Arts. The summer will be guided by personal and small group mentorship, experience along side staff/community members, and the individual's spiritual growth. Being a part of a Boiler Room, getting to know the individuals and families, outreach team, coffeeshop and street outreach, hosting outreach events, worship and prayer, teaching & training, building projects, ministry journals, and discipleship groups are all a part of TF. TF participants will also help host the Fallout Art fest at the end of the summer and there may be an option to attend the Cornerstone Music Festival in July.

24/7 Transit Intensives

24/7 National Gathering:
Since it's birth in 1999, 24/7 Prayer has seen steady growth and the amount of inquiries and interest continues to pour in. Weeks of 24 hours of prayer hosted by Churches, small groups of friends, urban communities, college students, Campus America, and Boiler Rooms along with Pete Grieg's Red Moon Rising (Chronicling the beginning years of the movement), and now PunkMunk has generated quite a stir.

We are gathering in Minneapolis, to put fuel on the fire of prayer, to be the community of faith and to take our campuses for the glory of Jesus. We recognize that there are many questions and a lot of interest in 24-7 Prayer as well as 24-7 Communities (Boiler Rooms) and Campus America. We are hosting one intense gathering with three separate tracks that follow the three veins of 24-7 Prayer here in the U.S. Please bring your friends and family and let's see what the Lord will do.

UMT (Urban Ministry Training): Source Boiler Room, Minneapolis
This is an attempt to try to give away all we can to the participants that come to attend. UMT will feature 24/7-prayer and Boiler Room leaders from across the nation. Boiler Rooms have the same DNA, but have unique expressions as each community, neighborhood, and city they are located in is unique. This is a great opportunity to connect and learn from many different leaders while experiencing a Boiler Room for a week. There will be a wide spectrum of experience from different leaders, and credible urban ministries (shelters, urban missions, inner-city churches, halfway houses, etc.). Creative teaching times, small group processing, prayer/worship, afternoon electives, evening outreaches, and meals to connect are all included.

Other highlights include:
- Drum&Easel (interactive art party in a shelter),
- Fallout Friday Art Opening / Open-mic, and

Drum & Easel Art Intensive: Source Boiler Room, Minneapolis
The Drum & Easel Art Intensive Week will be a week that we will focus on how communities can use creativity to impact culture and how individual artists can become the full expression of how God made them. Join us for a week of creating, presenting, learning, and serving in the context of relationship, families (children can come!), collaboration and worship. The Week will include: sharing, intensive teaching, worship times, creative workshops, and an interactive Art party at a local shelter. You will see and experience the Fallout Urban Art Center and FAI Coop first hand. During the week there will also be opportunity to participate in individual and group art projects as we will be prepping for the Fallout Art Fest at the end of the week.

The Fallout Arts Initiative (FAI) is part of Source. It's purposes are to 1) resource and equip emerging artist and 2) facilitate creative services that will benefit the poor. The FAI was conceived out a heart to combine creativity, justice, mission, and hospitality. It also allows Source to build relationships and community with the art culture (which is typically highly skeptical of any Christian initiative). Minneapolis has the world's most theatres per capita and if a very liberal and artistic city. The Fallout Urban Art Center (Gallery, warehouse performance space, prayer room) and the FAI Coop Building (23 different visual and performing studios) is located across the street from the Art Institute/MCAD/Children's Theatre.

Fallout Art Fest: what's a great way to serve a poor diverse urban artistic neighborhood? Host an incredible interactive neighborhood artistic block party. Each year we block off the streets in front of the Fallout UAC and the FAI Coop to make room for 2,000 attendees, 100 artist and performers, 5 stages, artist booths, interactive art stations, indy film fest, community murals, kids activities, free food, and one incredible lala-palooza worship circle dancing drum jam.
