It’s hard to believe, but the 2010 ICMC, “Follow Me” is only six weeks away! The Chicago Church has been eagerly working and praying that this year’s conference will be a life-altering time for everyone involved. The finishing touches are being put to our plans for both the HOPE Day of Service in Englewood and our conference program!
We wanted to remind everyone that registration is up and running, and encourage you to register today. The process is very simple: visit www.hereamisendme.net and follow the conference links for on-line registration. The cost is currently $75 per person, BUT IT WILL GO UP TO $95 IN LESS THAN TWO WEEKS (July 1). After you register, follow the links to book your hotel room at the Hyatt Regency. A three-night stay is only $105 total when there are four in a room. IMPORTANT TO NOTE: Our conference hotel rate with the Hyatt also rises after June 30, from $139/night to $179night.
If money is tight, put your head together with your campus ministry and come up with some great fund-raising plans! Campus groups all over the country are holding car washes, bake sales, garage sales, and various “blank-a-thons” in order to ensure they can attend. Students can offer to babysit, clean houses, or do yard work for the families in your churches in exchange for an ICMC donation. Also, don’t forget to request time off from work if you haven’t already done so.
It has been two summers since we have all been together in one location. We cannot wait to have you all with us from July 29 to August 1 in Chicago!
