CHICAGO, IL (April 13, 2016) – The window to attend Triennial XV at the regular rate of $399 expires this Friday. After April 15, the registration fee rises to $439. Covenant Events encourages women to register now to avoid the 10 percent rate increase.

Triennial, the Covenant’s signature conference for women, will be held July 28-31 at the Sheraton Kansas City at Crown Center.

Registrants must send a $100 non-refundable deposit by this Friday to secure the regular rate. Balances need to be paid in full by June 15, 2016. Email to arrange monthly payments.

Held in the “City of Fountains,” the conference is focused on the theme “Quench.”

The event is sponsored by Women Ministries and will include a broad variety of workshops, speakers, excursions, a mini-Sankofa, spiritual direction, a 5K run to support a school for girls operated by the Covenant Church of Congo, as well as other growth and fun activities.

Speakers include Meagan Gillan, director of Women Ministries; Jessica Leep Fick, the evangelism resources director for Stonecroft Ministries, a non-denominational organization that focuses on evangelism and leadership development among women; Nicole Bullock, a church planter and lead pastor at Blue Oaks Covenant Church and a professor at Bethel Seminary in Minnesota’s Twin Cities; and Gail Song Bantum, the executive pastor and discipleship elder of Quest Church in Seattle, Washington.

Groups of 10 or more women from each church will receive a $25 per person discount.

Many family activities are available in the area, so fathers are encouraged to come to Kansas City and enjoy vacation time with their kids while Mom is at the conference.
