    401 West Pratt Street

    Baltimore, MD 21201 

    Hotel Parking:

    $36 a day  

    Public parking and surface lots are available throughout the city.

    Airport:

     The easiest and closest airport to fly into is Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport . The code is BWI

    Ground Transportation to Hotel from airport 

    Ground Transportation to Hotel

    There is no free shuttle to or from the airport. Our recommendation is to use the Light RailLink to travel between the airport and the hotel. The Baltimore/Washington International Airport (BWI) is about 15 minutes from the Hilton. You can purchase a Light RailLink ticket at the airport and take it straight to the hotel. One of the stops (Camden Yard/Station) is directly next to the Hilton, a 7-minute walk from the hotel. 

    Light RailLink Schedule 

    You can also take rideshares like Uber or a private shuttle to the airport.

      

    Track Info

    As part of the Vision conference, students are placed into one of five tracks. Below is a basic explanation of the different tracks. The ERT (Event Registration Tool) automatically assigns each student to a specific track based on their answers to registration questions. Students do not choose their own track. We are providing this list to help new staff understand the different names of the tracks, so there is less confusion (for example Ignite vs. Multi-Nations).
     

    1. Chinese – Mandarin-speaking students (usually from China, Taiwan, Hong Kong or Singapore)

    2. COA (Children of Abraham) – Muslim-background students

    3. South Asian – students from South Asia

    4. Multi-Nations – Christian students and non-believing students from non-Chinese, non-South Asian and non-COA backgrounds

    5. Ignite – workers or volunteers who partner with Bridges; students are not part of this track.

    If you have questions regarding the conference schedule, please email Lizzie Edwards. A great snack for her is bananas with peanut butter. 

    *Please note: Do not share this schedule directly with students, as there is sensitive content. A more generalized conference schedule is listed on the main Vision page for student.

    Bridges Opportunities Dinner

    The Bridges Opportunities Dinner at Vision23 is an event intended to help mobilize believing students and/or key volunteers toward opportunities to serve with Bridges as interns (both in the US and internationally), full time staff and/or part time staff. Our time will be most relevant for Christian Juniors, Seniors, Graduate students, or key volunteers considering future employment. Think of the multiplying disciples whom you would want to work with!

     

    Bridges Opportunities Dinner: December 29, 5:30-7:00 pm EST

    Register HERE

     

    Some believing students may hear about this through the Vision registration. If there is a student or volunteer from your campus that you want to consider for Bridges employment opportunities, please encourage them to sign up using the link above! If you want to accompany anyone to the dinner please register yourself, as well.

    Invite students by sending them this invitation graphic!

    Volunteering at Vision

    Do you have ministry partners or family and friends with hearts for international students and live in the Denver area? Vision cannot take place without the help of many volunteers, especially on December 28, the first day of the conference. If you know someone who may want to volunteer, please forward this link to them to get registered. Chuck Goertzen will serve as our Vision Volunteer Coordinator and will be available to answer any questions you/they have about volunteering!
