Kurios Christian Gap Year program in Jasper

Kurios

Why choose Kurios?

Kurios is a Christian gap year experience located in Jasper National Park, in the heart of the Canadian Rocky Mountains. We mentor young adults (age 17-22) who want to experience the full life we believe comes from following Jesus. Our experience includes outdoor adventure, living in community, volunteering, education, personal development, and a 5 week cross-cultural experience in Guatemala. We seek to help young adults investigate core questions such as Who am I?; Where do I fit?; How do I hear God's voice?; How do I make a difference?; and How does faith impact life?

A life-changing experience

Hello, my name is Arielle MacKinnin and I am a Kurios alumni and from the first group at Kurios.
It was such an amazing experience, that was solely focused on building relationships with others, learning about God, what it means to be a follower of Jesus and have faith. It also was about bonding with others and helping others grow in their faith,
This was a life-changing experience with lots of experiences such as hiking, mountain biking, cooking, bonfires, camping and many other fond memories.
Kurios is worth doing and being a part of!

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
The Kurios gap-year program is worth taking, it might seem scary at first however, but in the end you will make long-lasting friendships,
There is a few things I would suggest: one, bring hiking shoes (I did but if you don’t you might regret it), two have a small amount for savings money or if you need toiletries but they will not let you starve:), 3 bring a Bible and notebooks and anything to write with!
There’s probably more things but I can’t think of them at the moment.
Pros
  • Read lots of the Bible
  • You get to travel a lot
  • It’s impossible to go to Kurios and not learn new things about God, and about yourself.
Cons
  • Long Drives
  • Sometimes early mornings (not a morning person)
  • Due to Covid-19 I didn’t get to leave Canada
