UPDATE: We are full for scholarships for the 2025 NPO. Check back in 2027 for the next NPO.
Hey, youth pastors, we’ve got an exciting opportunity just for you! USMB Nextgen is offering to sponsor the FIRST THREE youth pastors (part-time or full-time) to attend the National Pastor’s Orientation (NPO), coming up in sunny San Diego, California. This is a $450 value, and it could be YOU heading to this incredible event for free!
What’s the NPO, you ask? It’s a biennial event, happening March 24-26, 2025, specifically designed for new pastors who are either stepping into ministry for the first time or are new to the USMB family. The NPO is packed with opportunities to connect, learn, and refresh. If you are brand new and have worked at a church for many years but never attended, you are invited to the NPO. And your spouse is more than welcome to attend as well!
Here’s why you’ll love it:
- Networking & Relationships – Meet USMB leaders, seasoned pastors, and others who share your ministry path. It’s a chance to turn acquaintances into lifelong friends.
- Resources Galore – Discover the wealth of tools and support USMB offers, from administrative help to life insurance plans. You’ll get the full insider scoop.
- Encouragement & Growth – Ministry is challenging, and the NPO provides time to pray, worship, and recharge with others who get it.
- Relaxation Time – Two free blocks of time are built into the schedule to soak up San Diego’s beauty with your spouse or newfound crew. The location? The gorgeous Island Palms Hotel and Marina.
Here’s the deal—just email us at info@usmbnextgen.com to claim your spot!
Remember, this sponsorship is first come, first served and available to the first three youth pastors, so don’t wait. You’ll need to cover your travel to San Diego, but once you’re there, everything else—hotel stay, meals, activities—is taken care of.
You will also need to register for the NPO by CLICKING HERE. The deadline is February 24, 2025.
Don’t miss this amazing chance to grow in your role while connecting with the wider USMB family. Email us now, and we’ll see you in San Diego!
