TRAINING FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Our prices vary based on distance travelled, size of the event, and style of the event. Our pricing information can be found on page 8 of our Pre-Event Handbook.
We are more flexible on honorariums for training conferences. As long as our travel, food, and lodging is taken care of we can negotiate an amount you can afford.
We love to come to local churches large and small to provide training, encouragement, and consulting. We prefer to be able to invite people from your area outside your church to attend however it is not necessary.
You can schedule an event with the Jubilee Gang by using the contact form on our contact page. To see available dates, see our schedule page.
We can do 2 to 3 hours of training while we are at your church with two to three 50 minute classes. We can also provide consulting while we are at your church to train your children’s ministry leaders.
We believe that anyone who has a desire to reach and teach children can benefit from training. This includes current and potential children’s leaders, youth group volunteers, parents, and pastors.
While we can make adjustments to our stage for smaller locations, our default stage setup requires a stage that is 30 feet wide, 10 feet deep, and 10 feet of overhead clearance. Our truss system for lights is 30 feet wide, and needs to be 30 feet in front of the stage.
The Jubilee Gang travels with all the equipment they need, from lights and sound equipment, to stage and backdrop. We prefer to use our own gear as it eliminates the unknowns of using unfamiliar equipment.
We are a non-denominational spirit filled ministry that has ministered in over 35 denominations from Baptist to Pentecostal from Nazarene and Wesleyan to Church of God in Christ and African Methodist Episcopal. You can view our statement of faith in our pre-event handbook at the link below.
