Simply Jesus 2017: July 20-23

2017 SPEAKERS

Who should attend the Simply Jesus Gathering?

1. Those who have tried to follow Jesus for a while (maybe you go to, or lead, a church) – We think you’ll be reminded that Jesus is bigger than any box we’ve accidentally tried to put in. And, we think you’ll leave inspired, refreshed, and a little more equipped to continue on (and invite others into) this transformational, wonderful journey of following Jesus.
2. Those who think Jesus is interesting, but are not sure about all the religious stuff that often seems to come with him. – We anticipate you will hear some pretty deep thoughts about Jesus, make some neat connections with others like you, and generally be inspired toward faith, hope, and love as you gather with others around Jesus of Nazareth.

Are children and teens able to participate?
The minimum age requirement to come and participate with a parent is 14.

What’s the general schedule of the Gathering?
We will generally be together in a large group during the mornings and evenings. In the afternoons, there will be smaller group options, and/or free relational/ranch activity time.

Tell me more about options for the afternoons.
Registrants will have the opportunity to select to be a part of the Presence & Power Seminar OR Conversation Groups, as part of registration. Conversation groups allow up to 15 people to sit with a speaker to discuss a topic of the speaker’s choice.  In addition, 4 Eagle Ranch offers an assortment of other activities (see below).

What “ranch activities” can I participate in at 4 Eagle?
4 Eagle offers a host of activities (horseback riding, ziplining, 4×4 rides). If you are interested in signing up for a  Thursday or Friday afternoon activity at the ranch, please click here. (The cost of these activities is in addition to your registration and will be paid directly to the vendors providing them.)  An afternoon painting class will also be offered.  If you are interested, please let us know you are interested by emailing erica@nullsimplyjesusgathering.com.

Can I bring my pet?
No pets are allowed at 4 Eagle Ranch.

What does the registration fee cover?
The registration fee covers all meals from dinner Thursday through Sunday breakfast, the option to camp on the property at 4 Eagle Ranch (you must bring your own gear), and entrance to all sessions. Registration fees are paid directly to the Ranch to cover the expenses of being there.

What does the registration fee NOT cover?
The registration fee does not cover any of the administrative or technical expenses (video, website, sound, etc.), the travel expenses for our speakers, or discounts/scholarships for those who are unable to afford the full registration cost. We are accepting donations to help cover these costs.

What are lodging options?
Camping under the stars with your tent or camper (no hookups) at 4 Eagle Ranch is included in the cost of registration. (PLEASE NOTE: YOU MUST BRING YOUR OWN TENT/CAMPER/GEAR.) Portable showers and toilets will be available for camper use. For those who prefer something a little more comfortable, we have arranged special pricing with the following hotels in Eagle, CO. (Note that this is the busiest time of the year for these hotels, so make your reservations early!)

1. Hawthorne Inn by Wyndham. Mention “Simply Jesus at 4 Eagle Ranch” and receive an $80 room rate.
2. Eagle River Lodge. Mention “Simply Jesus” and receive a $119 room rate.

​What about my special dietary needs?
We have partnered with the culinary team at 4 Eagle Ranch to create a menu full of delicious, healthy meals for the Simply Jesus Gathering. Most meals will have non-dairy, vegetable, and/or “gluten-light” options. We will provide one vegan/gluten-sensitive (V/GS) meal option, however if you have special dietary needs please bring your own food to supplement what will be provided by the Ranch. If you’d like to partake of the (V/GS) menu instead of the standard menu, please indicate that when you register. (Note: if you select this option, please plan to eat from the vegan/”gluten-sensitive” options at each meal as we will base our preparation of food on these numbers.) ***For those with severe allergies, please know that the 4 Eagle Kitchen is not a gluten-free facility.***

What are my transport/parking options for/to the event?
The nearest large airport is Denver International Airport. From DIA, we suggest renting a car or taking a shuttle to Eagle (Drop off at the Kum & Go station just off I-70 next to AmericInn). For those renting a car or driving their own, 4 Eagle Ranch has ample parking (but we do suggest carpooling). We will provide morning and evening shuttle service to/from the ranch to the Kum & Go station in Eagle for those who need it.

Can I carpool with others from DIA to the Ranch?
The best way to connect with others wanting to carpool is to leave a visitor post on our Facebook page, including your flights’ arrival and departure times.  Those posts can be seen by anyone else looking to arrange a carpool.

What is the appropriate dress?
Casual. We’ll be at a ranch!

Is my registration refundable or transferrable?
Registration costs are refundable through March 15, 2017. However, a $35 administrative fee will be assessed. Tickets are transferrable through June 15, 2017. Please contact erica@nullsimplyjesusgathering.com for more information.

Where can I contact the organizer with any questions?
Please email Erica Denney at erica@nullsimplyjesusgathering.com.
