Frequently Asked Questions 

The Fellows Program is not currently accepting any applications at this time. 

If I received a $1,000 grant, am I obligated to apply to be a Fellow? 
How many people do we bring to Orlando?
Do the same young adults we worked with in the spring have to be the young adults that go to Orlando? 
What if we can’t find young adults who are able to take off work and travel to Florida? 
Are you REALLY covering the cost of this trip? 
How long does the Hatchathon go? 
Will we get bored working on these ideas? 

We are really struggling coming up with ideas. Is there someone we can talk to?

What if I have more questions? 

Not at all! No obligations whatsoever.
Between 3-4 and we ask that at least 2 of the participants be young adults.
Nope! We know the life of a young adult can change quickly! Bring the team that works for you. 
Shoot us an email and we can talk.
Yep! We’ll take care of mileage, parking, meals, tickets, rooms, and more! 
We start at dinnertime on Monday, Oct. 7 and will stay together through the evening of Thursday, Oct. 10.
We don’t think so! We’ve run a number of these events in the past and have a pretty good system in place. We are working with Ministry Incubators and they are pros when it comes to engaging congregations in imaginative ministry. Also, we've got some plans up our sleeves on how to make Wednesday a day of pure joy. Stay tuned!
Yes! Please let us know!
Please reach out - we’d love to talk!
