FAQ

All saints attending the conference should be registered corporately by church, region, or country through a registration coordinator. Applications by individuals will not be accepted. The registration coordinator first creates an account. Once the account has been approved by the conference, the coordinator downloads the Excel template, fills in the list of attendees, and uploads it. All registration is done online; there is no paper or in-person registration.

After you create an account and verify your email address, your account will be reviewed by the conference. You cannot upload a registration list until it has been approved. You will be notified of the result by email. If you have not heard anything for a long time, please leave a message for the conference service team.

After your account has been approved, log in to "My registration." On the "Roster" page you can add or edit attendees one at a time, or you can download the Excel template, fill it in, and upload it. When you upload a file, the system first shows a preview of what will be added, updated, or left unchanged, along with any errors. Nothing is saved until you confirm. To make changes later using Excel, first click "Download current roster" (this file includes each person's registration number), edit that file, and upload it again. Changes made on the website after you downloaded the file will not be overwritten by the older file; if the same entry was changed in both places, it will be listed as a "conflict" so that you can choose which version to keep. Excel can only be used to add or update registrations; anyone not listed in the file stays as they are. To cancel a registration, please do so in the registration list on the website (a cancelled registration can be restored at any time before the registration deadline).

On the login page, choose "Forgot password," and enter the email address you registered with. The system will send you a link to reset your password. If you do not receive the email, please check your spam or junk folder first.

Registration is open from October 12 through December 31, 2026. Late registrations will not be accepted.

Overseas conference registrants should submit a donation of $250.00 USD, which covers hospitality during the conference. Registrants for the church visitation trips, whether Period One or Period Two, should submit a donation of $350.00 USD. Those who would like to stay in hotels should make their own arrangements. Please note that the donation is non-refundable, even if your plans change after registering. This website adds the conference donation and the church visitation donation together; for example, the conference plus one church visitation period comes to $600.00 USD.

No. The $350.00 USD donation for the church visitation trip does not include the conference donation. The two are added together: $250.00 USD for the conference + $350.00 USD for the church visitation trip = $600.00 USD per person. Those attending only the conference submit $250.00 USD per person. Each person may join only one church visitation period, either Period One or Period Two. Please note that the donation is non-refundable, even if your plans change after registering.

No. The church visitation trips are arranged in two periods (Period One—February 16 through February 19; Period Two—February 22 through February 25). Each person may join only one period.

Whether during the conference or the church visitation trips, children who need a bed or a seat on the tour bus require the same donation as adults. Children who need neither a bed nor a seat on the tour bus (for example, sharing a bed with their parents and travelling on their own) do not need to submit a donation; the registration coordinator should tick "No bed or bus seat needed" in that child's registration.

Donations should be made by remittance; payment by check will not be accepted. The beneficiary account number is 065-08-7121733 (the full remittance details are given on this website). After sending the remittance, the registration coordinator can upload the remittance receipt under "My Account" to report it, and the conference finance team will confirm it. You may send the donation in several remittances; please report each one separately.

No. Saints in Taiwan should register through the Taiwan churches' registration system and do not need to create an account on this website.

Admission opens 90 minutes before the first meeting each day: 11:00 AM on Saturday, February 20, and 7:30 AM on Lord's Day, February 21. Other details regarding check-in and admission will be announced on this website as they become available; they have not yet been announced.

Yes. Those who would like to stay in hotels should make their own arrangements. The donation amount is the same ($250.00 USD per person for overseas conference registrants, and $350.00 USD per person for the church visitation trips, whether Period One or Period Two). Please note that the donation is non-refundable, even if your plans change after registering.

Gospel candidates invited to the conference may attend, but they must make their own arrangements for lodging. Hospitality during the conference and church visitation arrangements are available to believers only.

There will be no children's service at the conference. Parents who bring children must look after them themselves.

Hospitality arrangements will be made during the conference from February 19 through February 22 (four days and three nights). For those joining a church visitation trip, the dates of their period apply (Period One—February 16 through February 19; Period Two—February 22 through February 25). Those who arrive early or depart late should make their own arrangements for transportation to and from the airport and for lodging beyond these periods.

Church visitation trips will be arranged by the church in Taipei in two periods: Period One (before the conference)—February 16 through February 19; Period Two (after the conference)—February 22 through February 25. Each period is four days and three nights. Those who are registered for church visitation trips will be assigned to visit churches throughout Taiwan in various groups.

Enquiries may be sent by email to register@icsc2027.org. You may also leave a message for the conference service team at the bottom of the Help window. The conference service team will reply in the Help window (enquiries sent by email will be answered by email).

Required (gold columns): first name, last name, gender (M or F), and attendance option (code C = conference only; BC = church visitation before the conference + conference; AC = church visitation after the conference + conference; choose one per person). Optional: family code (use the same code, such as F1 or F2, for members of the same family; leave blank for someone attending alone), age (a whole number from 0 to 120), country (choose from the drop-down list), church (if you are responsible for more than one church, enter each person's church; if you are responsible for only one church, you may leave it blank), phone, email, and notes. The registration number (column A) is filled in by the system and is locked: leave it blank the first time you upload, and for later changes please use the file from "Download Current List."

All flight columns may be left blank for now and filled in later. When filling them in, please use these formats: airport = 3-letter code (Taoyuan TPE, Songshan TSA); terminal, such as T1 or T2; date = YYYY-MM-DD (e.g., 2027-02-16); time = 24-hour HH:MM (e.g., 14:30); flight number = airline code + flight number (e.g., BR226, CI5; spaces are removed automatically). Dates must be between January and March 2027, and the departure date cannot be earlier than the arrival date. The system only checks the format and whether the dates are reasonable, so please make sure yourself that the flight numbers and dates are correct.

Errors are listed row by row, and no data will be saved until all of them have been corrected. Common errors: "Missing required field" = the first name or last name is blank; "Gender must be M or F"; "Invalid attendance option" = please enter the code C, BC, or AC; "Age must be a whole number from 0 to 120"; "Registration number does not exist" = column A has been changed; please use the file from "Download current roster" instead; "Matches the same attendee more than once" = the same person appears in two rows; for flight-related errors, please correct the format (see "How do I fill in the flight information?"); "Missing required columns: ..." (for the whole file) = the header row has been deleted or changed; please download the template again. After making corrections, simply upload the file again.

Yes. The in-person meetings will be streamed live at www.lsmwebcast.com. Both the live and archived messages will be accessible via the "February ICSC" button on the webcast menu. Webcast times (Taipei local time, UTC +8): February 20 at 12:30 PM, 2:30 PM, and 4:30 PM; February 21 at 9:00 AM and 10:30 AM, and the Lord's Table at 12:00 PM. The archived messages will be available 2-3 hours after each meeting ends. The videos of the messages will be available at no charge until March 23, 2027. Conference outlines will be available on the webcast site to download beginning Saturday, February 13.

Hymns will be listed on the webcast site (www.lsmwebcast.com) before the start of each live meeting and will be listed with the archived messages when the messages become available. Churches participating in the conference should plan to include time for singing hymns prior to starting the message. After each ministry message we encourage all the saints to join an online prophesying session in their time zone, which we hope will promote the blending among the churches. We encourage the responsible ones in the churches to arrange prophesying sessions for their localities. Smaller churches are encouraged to combine for prophesying. Messages will be streamed in Chinese, English, Korean, Japanese, Spanish and Portuguese. Translation into additional languages may also be available. Please check lsmwebcast.com for updates related to language availability.

From Taoyuan International Airport (TPE), you can take the Taoyuan Airport MRT to Taipei Main Station, which takes about 35–50 minutes. Hospitality during the conference is from February 19 through February 22; for church visitation trips, the dates of your registered period apply (Period One—February 16 through February 19; Period Two—February 22 through February 25). Those who arrive early or depart late should make their own arrangements for transportation to and from the airport and for lodging beyond these periods. The Taipei Dome is near Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall Station on the MRT Bannan Line (blue line). An EasyCard can be used on the MRT and buses; you can buy and top it up at MRT stations and convenience stores.
