What to Expect at the 2026 Annual Conference
 
If you have attended the ICCC Annual Conference in the past, you will find this year’s conference, like the 2025 Annual Conference, quite different. Because of large financial deficits caused by guaranteed hotel contracts and declining attendance, a more financially responsible and stable conference is being planned.
 
Length
The conference begins at 8:00 AM on the morning of Tuesday, July 21 but we encourage delegates to arrive on the afternoon or evening of Monday, July 20.  Registration will be open in the hotel lobby Monday evening.  The conference will end following worship on the evening of Thursday, July 23.
 
Location and Hotel
The ICCC Annual Conference will be held at the DoubleTree Hotel in beautiful Crystal City, 300 Army Navy Drive, Arlington, VA 22202.  It is just across the Potomac River from Washington, DC.
 
Conference Volunteers Needed for Children

With the annual conference coming up, we are searching
for caring, enthusiastic volunteers to help with the
children’s program. This is a great opportunity to invest
in our youngest attendees, creating a fun and meaningful
experience for them while their families participate in the
conference.
 
The time commitment is about eight hours total, spread over the three-day conference. If we get enough volunteers, we can rotate shifts so that everyone gets a break.
 
If you’re interested or have questions, please reach
