Communicate to Your Group How to Register

  • Determine the Size of Your Group: Some groups purchase tickets and fill those slots at a later time, while others have a sign-up to determine the number of slots and then purchase tickets.
  • All Inclusive Package vs Individual Ticket: Some churches add costs for travel, food, and/or lodging on top of the CROSS CON ticket costs.
  • Save Money: Set a deadline that is early in order to take advantage of early bird discounts.
  • Future Idea: Some churches help subsidize the cost by building CROSS into their church budget.

This would include a short testimony or tip from a past group leader sharing ideas for what they do to either subsidize costs or gather registrations.
