AMS Replant Practitioner Training + Advanced Track
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. Registration for 2026 will open later this year.

New AMS Orientation
New AMS Orientation is our way of celebrating your commitment to serve our pastors and their families. We believe the role of the AMS is one of the most vital and impactful ministries within the SBC ecosystem. Our goal is to equip you with valuable resources, introduce you to the full scope of support available through NAMB, and connect you with leaders from every department. 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.

AMS Excellence Summit
The AMS Excellence Summit is an AMS/DOM-only, peer-led event. It brings top practitioners together for two days of inspiration, training, and fellowship, focused on skillset improvement, leadership development, and relationship building among AMS. This event is held annually the second week of September and includes a special ladies track for the wives.
