Tickets
Each Ticket to the National Challenge Weekend in Scottsdale comes with a special “Igniter BOGO” – allowing you to bring a second person FREE. Don’t know who that will be yet? No problem! Register today and use your BOGO code when it is e-mailed out to you later!
Special Early Bird Registration! Buy your initial ticket before September 15th for only $150. If you use the Igniter BOGO, that’s only $75 a ticket!
Standard Registration (after September 15th) is $195. Still only $97.50 a ticket with the Igniter BOGO!
If the cost of the event ticket is a concern, and you need to pursue a scholarship, please fill out this form.
How the BOGO Works
Register today to make sure you get a ticket! Anyone who registers will be given the Igniter BOGO codes on 9/15, 9/29, and 10/8 e-mailed directly to you. It will give you time to find the mid-career professional or friend whom you would like to invite. If you know your igniter BOGO and want to register early, please e-mail nationalcwe@worklight.org or call the WorkLight Home Office at (612) 552-5656.
BOGO code must be utilized by 10/8-one week before the event.
How Can We offer a BOGO for only $150?
While ticket sales help offset a portion of the costs, the majority of WorkLight’s National Challenge Weekend costs are covered by loyal Christians in Commerce donors.
If you’re in a position to do so, please pray about making a gift to help make this experience available for those attending on scholarship, BOGO guests, and future Igniters.

We will be providing lunch and dinner on Saturday the 15th, as well as the Kingdom Builder Luncheon on Sunday. Snacks will be offered throughout. Attendees should make their own plans (or coordinate with homestays) for dinner on Friday as well as breakfasts on Saturday and Sunday.

What might I experience?
Here is what others have left with:

- I gained clarity in how to bring Christ in the workplace.
- I was directed to the well of God’s love.
- I left with new hope in the midst of a marital crisis.
- I was able to relax and reflect on my time, share my faith with others, and to feel strengthened by our groups.
- The prayer-I needed that. It was a time of refreshing.
- I gained a new appreciation of the mutual support, friendship and love that binds us together as Christians.
