Annual Meeting Early Registration Approaching

gather15generalCHICAGO, IL (April 14, 2015) – Thursday, April 23, is the deadline for early registration to take advantage of discounted rates for Gather 2015, which includes the Annual Meeting of The Evangelical Covenant Church to be held in Kansas City, Missouri, June 25-27.

The early registration rate for delegates represents a 10 percent savings, which not only saves participants money, but also allows event planners to more accurately estimate the number of participants and negotiate the most-cost effective arrangements possible.

Attendees also will have the opportunity to participate in Experience Kansas City to see how Covenant people in the area are partnering with government and non-government organizations to serve the hungry, thirsty, stranger, naked, sick and imprisoned.

Covenant Kids Gather will be available to all registered attendees during the Gather business and worship sessions. Specialists who minister with children around the country have planned exciting and nurturing experiences for the kids.
