As Small Town Summits grows, we find ourselves linking arms with more faithful brothers around New England and sharing our experience with other like minded ministries in other places. This page, which is accessible only with a direct link, is a way to collect and share our resources and experience with our ministry partners.

If you have any questions, please reach out to Ben Whittinghill (Executive Director).


Organizing a Summit (zoom)

In the fall of 2022, STS organized a one-hour video call for those who had contacted us and shown interest in hosting a summit-like gathering in their part of the country or world. In this call we share:

  • 5 Keys to Success (0:00-27:22)

  • Financials & Logistics (27:22-44:52)

  • Planning & Publicity (44:53- 54:25)

  • Day of the Event (54:26-1:00:47)

  • Concluding thoughts (1:00:48-1:05:23)


Sample Summit

This 3 hour video is an example of a typical Small Town Summit. It includes all MC communication, plenary sessions, Q&A times, and prayers. We hope that this gives you a better picture of the experience and ethos of a Summit. This video does not include worship songs, breakout sessions, or our times of refreshments and fellowship throughout the day.
