Churches across North America face major challenges and a shifting landscape. Local associations are on the front lines, serving and leading these congregations. Each February, the Replant Team hosts a two-day intensive training, created by and for Associational Leaders and their Replant Team (up to 3 members), offering interactive instruction on church replanting to help struggling churches regain health and vitality. This event is held annually on the last week of February. Register now for the February 24-26 training.

The orientation includes travel on Tuesday, a full day at the NAMB headquarters in Alpharetta, Georgia, on Wednesday, and return travel on Thursday. It takes place in the third week of March. PRE-REGISTER and you will be sent details when registration opens.
