Next Steps Lunches (Registration Required)
If you’d like lunch before you go, CAFO2018 Champion Sponsors invite you to join them for a free meal and practical ideas for turning inspiration into action at home. Join one of these post-Summit opportunities by adding them to your registration.
Host a Global Leader
During Collaborate and CAFO2018, over 100 national leaders from over 30 nations will be joining us. Most of the global leaders come from developing nations, are pastors and live within what we would consider poverty levels of income. Each leader is responsible for raising their own travel costs, and without volunteer host homes, many would not be able to afford attending.
Hospitality & Connection Rooms
Current issues. Hot Topics. Like-Minded Friends. Connection is the heart of Summit! Join a conversation with those wading through the same family and ministry issues as you.
Meet friends to walk with you through Summit (and life). Look for interactive, connection rooms including: Foster & Adoptive Parents, Global Ministry, Parenting Children with Special needs, Adoption Funding, Non-Profit Leadership, Adoption Challenges, Creativity & Communications..and more!
Conversation & Renewal Hours
Don't miss these spots to find rest, encouragement, renewal, and community. Look for these spaces throughout Summit!
Meet New Ministries & Organizations
Don’t miss the expansive Exhibit Fair waiting to share unique resources, ideas and opportunities.
Get a head start by visiting our trusted members.
Praise & Petition Sessions
Amidst the whirl of our lives, perhaps nothing is more refreshing than the chance to offer praise and petition to God together with others who share our hurts and hopes. Join talented musicians and Summit attendees with similar hearts for one hour of simple thanksgiving and prayer.
