YPS NATIONAL

it’s like YPS but bigger and better!

 

Youth Pastor Summit National is designed to equip every leader who invests in the lives of the next generation. This is a conference like none-other, intentionally designed to cultivate an environment that fosters collaboration, community, and soul-care

We’ll bring in some of the world’s best student ministry minds, communicators, and practitioners to address four foundational and ever-present questions:

  1. Who are we becoming?
  2. What story is God telling?
  3. How should we think?
  4. Why and where do we influence?

 

What can you expect at the first ever YPS National?

  • 3 days full of incredible content & worship
  • Annual State of Student Ministry Discussion that addresses the trajectory of the current culture in student ministry
  • Fun experiences to celebrate the work you and your team have done – theme park, concerts, and other Orlando favorites
  • Community Meet Ups with ministry specific groups from across the nation

Join us in Orlando, FL for the largest gathering of youth pastors from around the country gather together for incredible worship, main stage sessions, topical sessions, and tons of free resources. It is our privilege to host YPS Orlando in partnership with Universal Orlando Resort and LifeWay Students, celebrating over 25 years of serving youth leaders, teams and educators across the country.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who should attend YPS?

The Youth Pastor Summit is geared towards all Youth Pastors and Key Youth Leaders (staff or volunteers) and Christian school educators. All attendees must be 18 years or older. 

How can I register for YPS?

Scroll up to the top of the page and click the “Register Now” button once registration opens on January 9, 2025.

There are two options for registration:

Individual Registration: Individual registration is for single attendees, who will need to sign up through his or her own registration account as the system will not allow duplicate email addresses.

Group Registration Option: This will allow you to register members of your team and/or family under one account and pay at one time. All members must have a unique email address. You will need to know each team member’s email address and date of birth (must be 18 at the time of registration) to register them. If a member of your group already has an SLU account with their email address but is currently not a member of your group account online, you will need email us at [email protected] so we can add them.

Can I register my whole group under one account?

This event does allow you to register as a group.   Accounts should be set up under your ministry’s primary contact and from there you can add your entire team.

Can my spouse attend?

Of course! We love when couples do ministry together. Make sure you register them so they are guaranteed a spot. Each attendee of YPS must be registered for the event and each attendee must register with their unique email address.

I have a small child, can they attend with me?

We think families are great, and time together is important.  Yet, this event is only for those who are 18 and older and who have graduated high school. We want everyone to have the best experience possible at this event, so please make arrangements to leave your children at home or arrange childcare for outside of the conference.

Can I transfer my ticket to someone else?

If you are registered as a group, we will do a one-time transfer of any of your participants, without penalty. Transfers are not available on individual registrations. This one-time transfer must occur a minimum of ten business days before the event. To make a transfer on your account, email us at [email protected] from your group leader’s email indicating the individual(s) you are canceling and the name, email, and DOB of the new registration(s). We will only make a transfer(s) on each group registration one time, and once you have made a transfer, your group is then finalized.

Are any meals provided at YPS Orlando?

Through the generosity of our event sponsors, lunch is being provided.
