Groups:
We would love to invite you to our International Student Groups! This is a fantastic opportunity to connect with international students from around the world, share your experiences, culture, and language, ask questions, and most importantly- have fun! We host exciting events, including cultural, quiz, film, and craft evenings. You can also join our weekly Bible Study session to explore the Christian faith and engage in discussions. In addition, don't miss our annual weekend retreat where you can meet international students from across Bulgaria and participate in European events.
We love exploring and practicing different languages, with the International IConnect groups conducted in English language. We can't wait to welcome you into our community. Come along, make new friends, and create unforgettable memories!

Sofia Group:
We would love to invite you to our International Student Group in Sofia! We are a friendly community of international students who gather every Tuesday evening for a time of food, fellowship and meaningful conversations. At 7pm-8pm we enjoy dinner and connect with each other. Afterwards, we eat snacks and begin our study in prayer, reading the scriptures, discussing the scriptures together. We have previously explored the book of Mark, Ephesians, Fruit of the Spirit and Spirit Disciplines. Whether you're new to faith, curious or looking to grow deeper, all are welcome!
Twice a month, we host fun, relaxed events that help us build friendships and enjoy each other's culture. Some of our recent events: waffle and paint night, British night, Scavenger hunt, picnics and Sri Lankan night. Whether you're here for a short or long term, we'd love to meet you.

Retreat
Once a year, both our Varna and Sofia groups come together for a Retreat in nature for a special weekend to rest, reconnect and refocus. It's a special time to disconnect from the busyness of life and enjoy games, laughter and deep conversations. Throughout the weekend, we spend time having Bible study discussions, hear talks, time in prayer and worship, and have plenty of space to ask questions and explore faith together. It's a meaningful and memorable time to grow in community and connect with students from across Bulgaria.
