The Orange Conference<\/a> is one of the best conferences around for students, kids, and next gen leaders and volunteers. There are thousands of people just like you learning from wonderful speakers while also being exposed to great resources and tools to help you in your ministry. I come back from the Orange Conference energized and excited to finish the year strong and plan ahead for the future of the ministry.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As great of a conference as it is, it is not always affordable or doable for your entire team to go. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

That is why the Orange Tour<\/a> is so important. Every year we pack up the conference and go to cities around the country so we can provide practical training and continue the conversations about innovating in ministry from conference. It is a fantastic event and the perfect opportunity for your ministry team to attend.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is why it is so important for your ministry team to attend the Orange Tour<\/a> with you.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Team Chemistry and Bonding <\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Whenever you do something as a team, you give yourself a chance to grow closer together and bond. One great way to do this is to do training together. When you go to the Orange Tour you will travel together, eat together and process all that you have learned together, and this time can be transformative. When teams get out of the Church and do things together it creates shared experiences which create better team chemistry and bonding.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Get Everyone on The Same Page<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The key to momentum in your ministry is getting everyone on the same page and moving in the same direction. Your team can learn a lot from Orange Tour, including both practical tips and new insights that have the power to transform your ministry. When your whole team comes, hears the speakers together, and, in turn, processes together, you get everyone on the same page and develop a different kind of momentum. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Invite Your Team to Experience Orange<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes, it can be difficult to explain what you experience at Orange Conference. How do you explain what it feels like to be in a room with leaders who do what you do? How do you explain all of the things you learned or heard? However, at Orange Tour, you can take your entire team, and you all get to experience it together. Being able to take any and all members of your ministry team to the Orange Tour gives them a taste of what Orange Conference is like. It creates a shared experience that will help you and your team grow closer together.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Get Training From Experienced Leaders<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Your team gets great training from you throughout the year. While your training is sure to be really effective, the Orange Tour provides them a way to get training from another voice. And while the training content may be similar to yours, there is something about hearing it from another experienced person that can help it sound fresh and new.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the Orange Conference<\/a> is amazing for anyone who can go, the Orange Tour<\/a> is just as great for a variety of different reasons. One of them is that it enables you to bring your team together. When you can bring members of your team together, it unites them, gets them all on the same page, and gives them an opportunity to experience Orange. It\u2019s a can\u2019t miss event for you and your team.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
