Summit Ministry Partners
“THANK YOU! Every topic, feature, issue, and idea centered around how to help us churches do ministry. It was not about growing numbers for the sake of getting bigger. It was not about bringing in more money for the sake of getting richer. It was all about how to help us do ministry, and that means that you truly understand what we are doing in our roles and you are willing to come alongside us and help us. Thank you for being the partner we need!”

On Wednesday afternoon, the buses will take guests to the hotels, then to our evening activities, and then to the hotels. On Thursday afternoon, the buses will provide transportation to Northwest Arkansas National Airport after all sessions conclude. There is no additional cost for taking advantage of the bus service.

People in the past have worn a range from business casual to smart casual clothing. Blue jeans are appropriate — whatever will make you feel comfortable and ready to engage.
All after-hours events are also casual, so whatever you plan for the day will be suitable for evening activities. Please keep in mind that some evening activities will be outdoors.
Each morning, breakfast is provided by your hotel. Each one offers a complimentary breakfast. We will provide lunch and snacks all three days. Our Tuesday Welcome Dinner will be held at the end of the first day. Wednesday evening offers free time for dinner. You may choose to grab dinner with your team or others from the event.
Yes, we are able to accommodate separate payment options if you need to pay for the Welcome Dinner using a different credit card. Please email [email protected] for more information.

Yes! If you decide to come directly to Cross Church Tuesday morning, we will have a room reserved for luggage. We will also have a space reserved for luggage on Thursday.
While Summit registrations are occurring inside of TouchPoint, the Summit database is not tied to any other church’s database. It will not recognize your login credentials (unless you have registered previously), and you will need to create an account if you would like to have one inside of the Summit database.
If you are unable to attend TouchPoint Summit, please notify a TouchPoint Summit team member ASAP. Keep in mind that all registrants who cancel have the option to transfer their registration to another member of their church to attend in their place. If you would like to proceed with this option, please let the TouchPoint Summit team know who you are sending in your place and please coordinate with your hotel accommodation.
