empowering a REVIVAL generation

 
 

PRESENCE CONFERENCE || November 2024

The only thing worthy of passing on to the NextGen is the presence of God. His presence contains His power. Having an experience with the Holy Spirit keeps young people connected to Jesus through times of doubt and discouragement. We desire to raise up a generation who loves and lives in His presence!

NCN builds pastors and resources the local church. We believe building a pastor, missionary, evangelist, or church planter starts at a young age. Here is how we desire to foster the call of God in the next generation . . .

  • Disciples students in how to steward their Calling and live a life worthy of their calling.

  • Creating atmospheres conducive to hearing God’s call (i.e., yth convention, summer camp, called camp).

  • Recognize students who are called with a commissioning certificate and ceremony.

  • Offer online courses for those who want to become commissioned ministers.

  • Help students find internship availability after High School that will help them gain ministry experience whether in a rural or urban setting.

  • Build the local church through empowering a generation to follow the call of God on their lives.

Join us this year for our 1 Day Event at William Jessup University, Rocklin. This will be a time for students to show us what they have been working on this last year.


What is Fine Arts Festival?

Fine Arts Festival is a discipleship tool of NCN Student Ministries designed to help students discover, develop and deploy their ministry gifts. This is done by providing a space where Jr. High and High School students can perform or exhibit their talents and art to qualified adjudicators who will then provide constructive feedback for students. Students will also have the opportunity to receive an invitation to the National Fine Arts Festival, held this year from August 5-9, 2024 in Columbus, OH, where they can compete for scholarships and receive even more feedback to help develop their talents for ministry. More details about National Fine Arts below.
