Kairos Torch Advanced Training (AKT)

 

 

AKT-Torch is for all Kairos Torch volunteers who are in or will be in a weekend leadership role,including Advisory Council or State Chapter positions, anywhere within the Kairos Torch program. AKT-Torch gives the what, who and why of the KairosTorch ministry. Kairos policy requires that all weekend leaders must have attended AKT-Torch prior to leading a weekend.
 
Principle Statements Concerning
AKT Expenses
 
1.    All AKTs are essentially free to any and all attendees.
 
2.   However, paying the expenses of an attendee for AKT  should be borne by the sponsoring Advisory Council (or State Chapter Committee in certain hardship cases), just as it is done in meeting other Weekend expenses.
 
3.   This means that all Advisory Councils should be budgeting, not only for the expense of conducting Weekends, but also for any AKT expenses deemed necessary for future Weekend Leaders or other attendees that the Advisory Council wants to attend.
 
4.    If an attendee wishes to make a personal gift to help defray the costs of  attending an AKT, he/she should make their donation directly to his/her  sponsoring Advisory Council, and NOT to the State hosting the AKT.   
                     
The Advisory Council will make the payment to the hosting State, as in 2. above. Since an attendee’s gift to the Advisory Council is a donation, it is subject to an affiliation fee due from the Advisory Council or State.
