Want FREE training? Try a Guest Services Weekender.

One of our staff team’s plumb lines is that we show our work. And one of the ways we do that is by pulling back the curtain so you can see (a) how we train our volunteers to welcome our guests and (b) how that training is actually executed on the weekend.

Both of those things converge at a Guest Services Weekender, a free opportunity to get practical training for you and your team.

A Weekender is perfect for your staff, your volunteers, or key leaders within your Guest Services ministry.

Our remaining 2025 dates:

• Thursday, February 20 (6:00 – 8:30 p.m.)
• Thursday, May 22 (6:00 – 8:30 p.m.)
• Thursday, September 11 (6:00 – 8:30 p.m.)
• Sunday, November 9 (8:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.)

Why choose a Weekender?

• Targeted and practical. At a Weekender, you’ll sit in on our Guest Services training and see how we equip our volunteers at the Summit. You’ll get a behind-the-scenes look at our teams in action. And you’ll have plenty of time to ask questions and get helpful answers.

• Designed for teams. If you’re on staff, bring a couple of volunteers. If you’re a volunteer, kidnap a staff member and toss ’em in the trunk. The process will be more beneficial if you have more eyes on it. And the discussions on the way home are much more fruitful (speak loudly so your staffer in the trunk can hear you).

• Scheduled around your schedule. Want to see the Sunday morning speed in full action? Our November Weekender will let you do that. Want the same content, philosophy, and observation, but can’t break away from your Sunday responsibilities? Our February, May, and September Weekenders are held during our Thursday night worship services, so you’ll be back in plenty of time.

• Affordable. Did we mention that all Guest Services Weekenders are absolutely free? You’ll take back copies of our curriculum and samples of our first-time guest process. And if you plan to spend the night, we’ll even help out with the best discounts at area hotels.
  • Thursday Weekenders include a dinner option at an extra charge. Join our team for a pre-game meal and unstructured conversation!
