Group church trips are very popular and many people just need to get away. Most meetings and functions are hosted at your local church. This is convenient and provides the ministry a cost savings because on most occasions you do not have to pay the church or if you do it's a minimum charge.
Having your event at another location sometimes will draw a larger crowd. A crowd that is unfamiliar with your church. Workers at the chosen venue and guests will often stop by if you are having a public event.
Here are some helpful tips to get your trip started.
1. Form a committee and find out where you want to go. Is it a Marriage Retreat? Church Ski Trip? Trip to New York to see a Broadway Show? Ask your group to decide. Maybe it's a missions trip. .
2. Check for group discounts wherever you go: This can be overwhelming, but it can be done. Begin by outlining an itinerary of your trip from the time you leave the church parking lot until the time your arrive.
Speak to your church leadership about the best way to enlist your team. Be sure to cover all the details of the trip, especially the work that you are planning. Hold regular meetings with your team to prepare.
