Come one, come all - 2012 conference is open for registration

The registration for the Calvary Chapel Scandinavia Conference 2012 is now open. The conference will take place on August 1-5. Get more info here.

THE PLACE
For the last three years Ekebyholm Castle has been the venue for the Calvary Chapel Scandinavia (CCS) 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
Throughout the course of the conference's 11 main sessions, a mix of experienced guest pastors and young local missionaries will teach through the first half of the Acts of the Apostles. The conference will also offer specific workshops on ministry, parenting, and other relevant topics. All teaching will be in English.

THE TEACHERS
This year we expect to welcome between 4 and 5 guest speakers to teach alongside local ministry leaders from Scandinavia throughout the conference. So far, the confirmed guest speakers are pastors Kevin Fitzgerald, Nate Holdridge, and Arpad Horvath Kavai.

THE TIMING
The official program will be announced soon. Until then, please note that the "Arrival and registration" takes place on Wednesday (Aug. 1st) between 4pm and 7pm. The first worship and teaching sessions starts at 7:30pm.
