- Churches, schools, and other ministries will register their staff members and handle conference fee payments via secure online registration. You will first create an account for your organization, then enter participant names and choices. This includes making workshop and meal selections and purchasing additional meals for participants and guests.
- Active professional church workers: Complete this handy worksheet, then turn it in at your organization's office to have them register you for this event. Do not mail worksheets to the District office.
- Retired professional church workers: Complete the same online registration as the organizations, but select "My Family" instead of "My Organization" when creating your account.
Hotel reservations will be handled directly by the Kalahari Resort. See the
