Welcome Camp Pastors
Our team is thrilled to be working alongside you as we proclaim the gospel together at CentriKid in 2024! Here are your next steps to begin preparing for the summer. Please pay special attention to due dates for each step. If you have questions at any point, please feel free to reach out to Henry Dutton.
Step 1
Initial Onboarding Form & Contract
Priority: HIGH – Due ASAP!
Step 2
Banking & Payment Forms
Priority: Due 14 days prior to camp.
Step 3
Family Info & Waivers
Priority: Due by May 15
Step 4
Study & Prep for Camp
Step 1: INITIAL Onboarding form & contract
Please take a moment to complete this form. This “onboarding form” will allow us to collect and / or verify pertinent information so that we can create and send your contract for camp, and it will help us with other preparations.
After completion, Amy Cato from our HQ team will initiate your contract in the coming weeks. You will receive the contract via email from “Lifeway Contracts.” Contracts are managed through a third-party service, Concord. Important: When you receive your contract, Concord will prompt you to “Activate your free account.” Please click “no thanks,” and then proceed through the steps to complete and sign. All contracts remain accessible via the unique, secured link provided in the email, so there is no need to create an account.
Please be aware that part of your contract will authorize Lifeway to initiate a background check.
Complete the onboarding form, and the subsequent contract, as soon as possible.
Step 2: banking & payment forms
Set up or update your direct deposit / banking information, if needed.
RETURNING PASTORS
If you’ve been paid by Lifeway/ CentriKid via direct deposit in the past, and if there are no changes to your banking information, no action is necessary.
UPDATES or CHANGES
If you’ve previously been paid by Lifeway/ CentriKid but need to UPDATE your banking information, use the ACH Enrollment Form. Submit the form to [email protected] as directed.
NEW PASTORS
(1) Complete IRS form W-9. Send a completed Form W-9 to Alli Brown. (Alli is part of our CentriKid HQ team and helps with payments).
(2) Complete the ACH Enrollment Form, and submit to Alli Brown.
Important Note: Please remember that the name and contact information you provide on form W-9 must also match the name on your ACH Enrollment Form AND your contract. To avoid potential delays in payment, please be consistent.
Submit all required banking forms at least 14 days prior to camp.
Step 3: FAMILY INFO & WAIVERS
Due by May 15
If you have family attending with you, we need to collect additional information in order to make important preparations for camp (housing, additional background checks, etc.).
Anyone attending with you who is over the age of 18 must complete and pass a national background check prior to arrival on campus, and background checks can take 3-5 business days to process. It is essential that you complete this form in a timely manner.
Any minors attending with you who plan to participate in camp activities must also have a completed camp waiver. Details are provided on the form.
