ATLANTA, Sept. 29, 2015 /Christian Newswire/ -- The Orange Conference, a conference for entire family ministry teams, will be held April 27–29, 2016, in Atlanta. Over 6,000 key influencers—senior, NextGen, student, children's and preschool leaders—will gather to learn new insights into influencing the faith and character of the next generation.

This year's theme, "Every Week, Monday Is Coming," will help family ministry teams discover how to make what they do on Sunday matter more during the rest of the week. Monday is when reality hits. Monday is when Sunday is tested. Monday is when faith has to work. So what if what you do every Sunday could matter more if you remember what really matters to most people on Monday? This topic will lead the discussion at The Orange Conference 2016.

Every year thousands of family ministry teams attend to get realigned, hear new ideas, discover resources and answers that are specific to their needs, network with innovators, bond as a team and have fun. And with over 100 different breakouts offered during the three-day event, attendees can attend with their team but choose topics that relate to their specific role.

The Orange Conference provides a place for entire family ministry teams to start connecting together in a way that will matter every week. That makes it easier to build a ministry that connects kids with a comprehensive plan from zero to college.

A few of the amazing speakers for 2016 include: Andy Stanley, Senior Pastor of North Point Church; Ryan Leak, Young Adults Director at Covenant Church; Reggie Joiner, founder and CEO of Orange; Pete Wilson, Founder and Senior Pastor of Cross Point Church; Virginia Ward, Director of Black Campus Ministries New England; Perry Noble, Founding and Senior Pastor of NewSpring Church; Doug Fields, youth ministry veteran of over 30 years; Jon Acuff, author, blogger and speaker; Kara Powell, Executive Director of Fuller Youth Institute, and many more!

Registration opens October 8. For more information, please visit TheOrangeConference.com.
