Covenant Church PlantingTraining
Three days in Phoenix that open your six-month training cohort. You come with your coach and your Conference Church Planting Leader, and you leave having started the Prayer section of your Well-Conceived Plan together.
RealDates, venue and airport are confirmed: 17 to 19 November 2026, Desert City Church, PHX. Glenn confirmed the dates on 19 and 24 August.
Not builtThe registration close date is unset. Past cycles closed two and a half to four and a half weeks out; SSC Admin sets it, and it appears here, in the invitation and on the CPL briefing the moment it does.
Seven things, in the order they unblock the rest. A note on the page answers any of them.
Looking atThe Google Form and the forwarded email are replaced by one record that renders this page, the invitation and SSC Admin's lists. Every date and figure on this page comes from that record, so a correction is made once.
RealSteps 1, 3, 4 and 5 are built and in production. Nothing has been sent, because the send is switched off until the team has reviewed this page and the messages below.
Not builtTwo questions on the form are decided and not yet built: I now live in the community where I plan to plant and I can attend all three days in full. A no would not block registering; it would flag the candidate for the CPL and SSC Admin.
TestingWho sends, and from what address. Proposal: the app sends as Covenant Church Planting with replies going to SSC Admin. The alternative is SSC Admin forwarding each one by hand, as before.
It does not have to be all or nothing. Pick the tier for this cycle and the rest waits for spring.
This page replaces the Google Form. SSC Admin emails the link as usual. Rooming and kitchen lists come out of the registrations instead of a spreadsheet.
Good, plus the invitation goes from the app to each candidate with the CPL copied, carrying their personal link, once the CPL confirms readiness. Coaches get theirs the same way.
Better, plus the two readiness questions on the form, and reimbursement filed in the new expenses form rather than the 123FormBuilder one.
TestingWhich tier, and by when. The date that matters is 27 October, the last day to book a flight inside the 21-day reimbursement window. Working back from it: CPLs briefed at the 1 October meeting, invitations out 2 to 6 October.
Looking atRendered from the same record as this page. Alex Example, Sam Example and the personal link are invented; everything else is what a real candidate would receive.
Alex,
You're invited to the Church Planter Training Orientation, 17 to 19 November 2026 in Phoenix. Orientation begins the six-month Level 1 cohort the week after.
Book your flight by 27 October. That is the date the 21-day reimbursement window closes, and it falls before registration does. Booking later than 27 October means airfare is not reimbursed in full, so this is the one date to put in your calendar today — ahead of registering, not after.
Register here: https://ccp-register.pages.dev/cpto-2026-11/?k=personal-link-for-alex
That link is yours. It records your registration against your file, so please don't forward it — a guest registers on the same form, as your guest.
Your Church Planting Leader is copied on this. Attendance, anything your conference arranges differently, and whatever the two of you already have underway are theirs to talk through with you directly.
Questions about registration, travel or lodging
SSC Admin, [email protected]
TestingIs this the message you want a newly recommended candidate to receive first? Add, cut or reword anything; a note on the text is enough.
Not builtThe registration close date is missing from the message on purpose, because nobody has set one. Once SSC Admin sets it, it goes in as its own sentence.
Jordan,
Alex Example, whom you coach, has been invited to the Church Planter Training Orientation, 17 to 19 November 2026 in Phoenix. Coaches attend, and we would like you there.
If you are flying, book by 27 October. The 21-day reimbursement window closes before registration does, so booking waits on nothing.
The Start and Strengthen Churches office sends the registration link and the lodging details. If it has not reached you by the time you are ready to book, write to them rather than waiting.
TestingCoaches are told SSC Admin sends the registration link. If this page is public, the coach's message can point here instead.
Everyone attending registers here: recommended candidates, coaches, CPLs and the training team. Attendance is 100% mandatory. If you cannot be present for the whole training, do not register; speak with your conference staff about postponing your training start instead.
Demo controlFiling is switched off on this draft. The live page files into the SSC registration database and sends nothing by email; here the Register button does nothing and anything you type stays on your screen.
TestingCandidates arrive from a personal link in their invitation. Coaches, CPLs and the training team register from a shared link SSC Admin sends, or from a public page. Does that split work for how you run the cycle?
TestingFor Sarah: is this the right amount of schedule for a registration page? The alternative is arrival, opening lunch and last session only, with the full agenda from SSC Admin closer to the date.
Not builtArrival, departure and housing windows follow last cycle's Thursday-to-Saturday pattern shifted to Tuesday-to-Thursday, until SSC Admin confirms them.
All times Arizona time, which does not change for daylight saving.
Not builtThe airfare cap and the mileage rate are unset for this cycle on purpose. The last two cycles carried different figures because each email was forwarded from the one before. They render here the day SSC Admin sets them, and nowhere else.
TestingReimbursement: keep sending people to the 123FormBuilder form, or point this cycle at the new expenses form at reimburse.leadervista.com? The new one is live and has taken its first real claim.
Flights. Book economy or basic economy to Phoenix Sky Harbor (PHX) at least 21 days ahead, which for this cycle means by 27 October. SSC reimburses round-trip airfare up to a cap set each cycle, in USD. This cycle's cap is not set yet, so confirm it with SSC Admin before you book. Rare exceptions to the cap exist for extreme distances such as Alaska or parts of Canada, and only for tickets bought 21 days out.
Driving. Personal auto is reimbursed per mile plus tolls, not to exceed the 21-day economy airfare equivalent. This cycle's rate is not set yet; confirm it with SSC Admin.
Housing. Housing is provided Monday afternoon through Friday morning checkout. SSC Admin confirms the hotel and whether the room is booked centrally about a week before.
On site. SSC uses WhatsApp during the event for rides and logistics. Install it before you travel.
Not covered. Change or cancellation fees, Car rentals, Food and drink before you arrive, Nights outside the housing window.
Reimbursement. The SSC reimbursement form. Submit receipts within one week after the event ends. Receipts after that cannot be reimbursed.
RealSSC Admin's mailbox is real and is the address every message and this page point to.
@ai in a note and it goes to the drafting queue, and the reply comes back on the note.
