Presented by Student Leadership University
Youth Pastor Summit
YPS is our gift to youth pastors, workers, volunteers, and educators as encouragement and investment in those who are making a lasting impact in the lives of students.
ABOUT YPS
Youth Pastor Summit is a conference that brings together student pastors, educators, and volunteers into one room to foster collaboration, community, and soul-care. It is a direct response to the growing need for people to pour into this generation.
As Student Leadership University trains up the next generation, we increasingly recognize the exponential impact that the leaders have on these students. YPS gathers thousands of leaders from across their regions of the country from 30+ denominations and movements. Each YPS includes mainstage sessions and leadership labs that all address 4 foundational and ever-present questions:

About the Youth Pastor Summit
At YPS, we're intentional about cultivating a leadership environment of collaboration, community, and soul-care. We bring in some of the world’s best student ministry minds, communicators, and practitioners to address four foundational and ever-present questions:
- Spiritual Formation: Who are we becoming?
- God’s Mission: What story is God telling?
- Ethics: How should we think?
- Leadership: Why and how do we influence?
Plan on registering for one of 4-spring YPS events in SoCal, Dallas, Nashville, and Raleigh as well as the first ever YPS National Conference in Orlando, FL this coming fall. YOU DON’T WANT TO MISS IT!
