    It's Beginning to Rain!

    NPUC Ministerial Convention 2026 brings pastors, their families and conference leaders together for inspiration, renewal and shared vision. Centered on worship, learning and fellowship, this family-friendly gathering is designed to refresh hearts and refocus minds on God’s mission. 


    As we witness the Holy Spirit at work — reviving leaders and families, changing lives and opening doors in new communities — we come together to celebrate what God is already doing and seek His continued leading. Our prayer is that each participant leaves encouraged, spiritually renewed and ready to make and multiply disciples through the power of the Holy Spirit.


    Who Should Attend

    • NPUC Pastors & Families

    • NW Conference Leaders

    • NPUC Session Delegates

    • Special Guests


    MinCon 2026 brings together Pacific Northwest Adventist pastors, their spouses and children, conference leaders, and departmental staff. Pastors from Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Upper Columbia, and Washington Conferences are largely pre-registered. Session delegates may also be present, reflecting the natural overlap of ministry audiences.


    This gathering provides encouragement, spiritual renewal, and meaningful connection. Families and leaders will worship, learn and share fellowship together.


    Northwest Adventist churches are invited to join the Sabbath morning service via livestream, celebrating God’s work as one family.


    The week concludes with the NPUC and Walla Walla University Constituency Session. All duly-appointed delegates, along with ex officio members and invited guests, will gather for reports, elections and important business.


    Refreshed. Refilled. Ready.
