Sign up for the 2015 conference

The registration for the Calvary Chapel Scandinavia Conference 2015 is now open, with cheaper prices than previously. The conference will take place from July 29th to August 2nd and will offer unforgettable studies of the second half of 1 Corinthians. Here's why you shouldn't miss it!

From the moment the Bibles are opened for the very first session at this year's Calvary Chapel Scandinavia (CCS) Conference, there will be drama and delight, controversy and comfort as divine truth about life, love, and God Himself is served through some of the most potent passages of Scripture. Go ahead, read it for yourselves and see what's in store in 1 Corinthians 11-16.

Once more, Ekebyholm Castle will be the venue for the conference. Situated about 30 minutes' drive outside Stockholm, the location is a former royal castle from the 1700's, which today is used as a boarding school. Outdoor facilities include a large playground, two beach volleyball courts, a football pitch, and lots of space for both indoor and outdoor activities.

THE TEACHING
At the 2015 conference a line-up of invited guest pastors and local speakers will teach through the second half of Paul’s first epistle to the Corinthians. The conference will also offer specific workshops on topics that are highly relevant to our daily lives as Christians. All teaching will be in English.

THE TEACHERS

This year we welcome four guest speakers to teach alongside local ministry leaders from Scandinavia throughout the conference. These guest speakers are pastors Alex Kruse (CC Siegen in Germany), Kyle Eckhart (CC Szeged in Hungary), and Mark Walsh (CC New Zealand).

THE TIMING

Please note that the "Arrival and registration" takes place on Wednesday (July 29th) between 4pm and 7pm. The first worship and teaching sessions starts at 7:30pm.

IMPORTANT:
Please note that due to people's differing arrival times, the Wednesday evening dinner is NOT included in the attendance prices listed below. However, if you would like to have a light dinner on Wednesday evening, you must let us know when filling out the registration form. It will be served at 6pm and costs an extra 50 SEK pr. person. If you would like lunch on Sunday, you can buy lunch for 75 SEK pr. person.

THE SLEEPING FACILITIES

When you sign up, you can choose between three different types of accommodation which all vary in price (see below): Private bedroom (with your own key), Gender-divided dorms in classrooms (mattresses will be provided), or space for self-brought tent or auto camper.

IMPORTANT:
Please note that private bedrooms will be assigned based on who signed up the earliest, however married couples, families with children, and elderly attendees will be prioritized in case of simultaneous overbooking.

ATTENDANCE PRICES

The price for your attendance depends on your age and what type of accommodation you choose. See all prices below. Please note that we are using a different price set-up this year than in previous years.

Regardless of your accommodation choice, everyone will pay a basic conference fee, which covers your use of the castle facilities (such as restrooms, showers, sports facilities, etc), and all meals throughout the entire conference (meals include breakfast, lunch, dinner and various servings of refreshments in the afternoon and evenings).

The prices for accommodation is put together in a way that sets a fixed price for a private bedroom no matter if one or six people are staying in the room (an option more profitable for families, married couples, or friends of same gender), a fixed price for a tent or camper site, and an individual price pr. person for those staying in dorms.

Basic fee - ADULTS: 575 SEK (age 13 and older)
Basic fee - CHILDREN: 250 SEK (age 2-12)
Basic fee - BABIES: free (age 0-1)
