We’re so excited that you’re interested in joining us at NYC 2026! Here’s what you need to know before you jump in:

Registration Instructions

 Here’s an overview of your registration process! You will not be counted as registered until all of these steps have been completed. 

FIRST,

Any student who wishes to attend NYC will register and pay through their local church. Submit your NYC 2026 Intent to Register Form and your trip deposit to your local church.

NEXT,

Your local church will collect and submit your NYC 2026 Intent to Register Forms and your trip deposit to the NYC Sacramento District Registration Team.

THEN,

The NYC Sacramento District Registration Registration Team will send an Online Registration Link to you, using the email address you provided on your Intent to Register Form.

FINALLY,

You will complete your Online Registration link. You are not fully registered until your online registration link has been completed!

Please note that all registrations completed through the Online Registration link are final. Our District is obligated to pay the $500-$575 Conference registration fee for each registration link we send out, and all travel and other expenses have been negotiated based on group rates. It *may* be possible to swap someone in place of someone else, but cannot be guaranteed. Please contact NYC Coordinator Amber Bender at nyi@sacnaz.org if you encounter this situation.
