Hi there,

As we prepare for IC Conference 26, I wanted to reach out personally and invite you to be part of something that really sits at the heart of who we are as Intentional Churches.

We just confirmed our first two main stage speakers, and I can already tell you, this conference is shaping up to be a really special one. But more than the speakers or the sessions, what makes IC Conference powerful is the people in the room, church leaders who are committed to alignment, disciple-making, and leading their churches with clarity and courage.

That’s where you come in.

I’d love to invite you to join us at IC Conference 26, and even more than that, to consider bringing another church with you, specifically a church you know would benefit from the IC toolbox, the relationships, and the clarity that comes from being together.

One of the things we believe deeply is that relational invitations matter more than marketing emails. You are the heartbeat of this movement. Your story, why you come to the conference, how you use the IC tools, and how it’s impacted your team, carries weight in a way we simply can’t replicate.

So here’s the simple ask:
If you’re willing, record a short video invite, nothing fancy, sharing why the IC Conference has mattered to you and encouraging at least two churches you know to join us next year.

We truly believe this relational approach reflects the ethos of Intentional Churches and accelerates what God is already doing through this network.

Thank you for your belief, your partnership, and the way you continue to serve church leaders so faithfully. I’m incredibly grateful for you—and I can’t wait to gather together at IC Conference 26. I have a strong sense it’s going to be one of our best yet.

For the One,
Doug Parks
