Please refer to the Other Lodging page to secure off-site lodging for Wednesday, February 5th through Saturday, February 8. Cost Breakdown: Registration = $104, Facility charge + Onsite meals = $205.

Why is my Preferred Admission "on-site" cost listed as a Double Occupancy?

As we have a limited number of rooms at this venue, all attendees must share a room with one other person. We make every effort to assign you to a room with your listed "roommate preference". If no one is listed, we prayerfully do our best to match you with a roommate using criteria such as interests in similar regions of the world, age, and/or home church location.

Can I have a private room?

Due to the limited number of rooms at this venue, it's unlikely we will be able to offer private rooms. However, if you are interested in this possible option, please email Christine Cottrell (christine@vmteam.org) ASAP, as availability will be on a first come first serve basis. Once we hear from you, we will add you to a waiting list and will let you know if any single rooms become available. FYI, the cost for a private room will increase to $998. Cost Breakdown: Registration = $104, Facility charge + Onsite meals = $205, Lodging onsite = $689

What if I want to invite someone to come to the MLM?

Due to the limited number of rooms at this venue, we want to give priority to leaders from our partnerships to register first. If you have someone additional you want to invite, please email their name to Christine Cottrell (christine@vmteam.org) and she will add them to a waiting list. If we still have space available after January 1st, we can begin extending invitations to those on our waiting list.

Can I bring my kids?

We cannot accommodate children, except for nursing infants.

What if I need to cancel?

Refunds, less a 15% cancellation fee (per registrant), can be made until January 3rd, 2025. However, if your cancellation is Covid-related, we will provide a full refund anytime before the conference starts on February 5th.

Check-In & Scheduling

When should I arrive and where is Check-in?

We highly recommend you arrive between 2:30 PM and 5:30 PM for check-in on Wednesday, February 5th. The venue does not have a staffed front desk so all check-in procedures will occur inside the "Texas Sage" meeting room, which is next to the "Welcome Center". At check-in, you will receive your room building/number, room key, name badge and any conference materials.

What happens if I arrive on Wednesday before the 3:00pm check-in?

If you arrive before the 3:00pm check-in, you are welcome to relax in any of the outside seating areas around the venue. There will also be tables and chairs set up in the “Texas Sage” meeting room, as well as some snacks, drinks and food provided for those arriving early. The “Texas Sage” meeting room is also where the official check-in will be, as well as our main sessions during the week.

What happens if I need to arrive late at night on Wednesday, February 5th?

If possible, please plan to arrive to the venue NO LATER than 9:00 PM. The venue does NOT have a staffed front desk, nor does it have on-site assistance for late arrivals. Please contact Christine Cottrell ahead of time if you think you may be arriving later than 9:00 PM.

What is the schedule for Wednesday, February 5th?

Check-in begins at 3:00 PM. The conference will begin with dinner together at 5:30 PM and the main evening session is at 7:00 PM.

What day and time does the conference end?

The conference ends at 11:00am on Saturday, February 8th. We will be concluding with worship. Our last meal at the venue will be breakfast on Saturday morning, so there will be NO lunch on-site Saturday.

What happens if I need to arrive a day early or stay a day after the conference ends?

Unfortunately, the venue has NO on-site availability for individual reservations. If you need to arrive a day early or stay later, we recommend you look for a hotel either in New Braunfels (see Other Lodging page) or near the airport.

Other Questions

What should I wear?

Whatever you want! Keep in mind that late February in New Braunfels, Texas is usually in the 60s during the day and 30s-40s at night, so dress accordingly.

What if I have dietary restrictions?

If you have specific dietary restrictions such as: Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Vegan, Vegetarian, Nut Allergy, or any other food allergy, please email Christine Cottrell (christine@vmteam.org) as soon as possible. Please be aware that while the dining room staff does its best to accommodate dietary restrictions, they can only guarantee separate food options for those with specific allergies.
