Applying for the conference is a two-part process. ISI and IFI staff, Min Reps or Volunteers must fill out a referral application for a student they think would benefit from this conference and then the student referred must fill out a student application.You will be given the link to the student application to pass along to the student once your referral has been approved. Both referral and student application must be submitted in order for our review team to make a decision.
This conference if for you too, the referrer. Mentorship is a key component of this conference and those that refer students will receive specific training in mentorship, discipleship and releasing students into spiritual leadership during the conference. There is also set aside time daily at the conference to meet one on one with your mentee. Whether or not you are in a mentorship/discipleship relationship already with the student you are referring, you will see in the referral and student applications that we are asking for a 6 month post-conference commitment to meet regularly with the student/students that you bring.
Because of the nature of the referral process, we ask that you don’t publicly promote the conference.
There is limited space so please consider 1-2 students you would like to refer. As a reminder (see "About" page for more info), we are looking for Christian International students who have a heart for God, are humble and teachable and desire to be a part of God building His Kingdom around the world. If our review team accepts both applications you will be sent a link to register. The registration form is for both students and staff who have been invited to attend the conference.
The cost per person for the conference is $375. This cost covers all lodging, meals and conference fees. but does not include travel costs. $100 non-refundable deposit is due when you register online. You have the option to pay the total $375 or just the $100 when you register. If you have questions about regional financial help for your student, please contact your regional field director and they will guide you through that process.
