A three day leadership conference with lodging and meals included for only $209. This is the best investment your church can make in your pastoral team's development! June 11-13th is PALCON (Pastors and Leaders Conference) at Trevecca and we'd love to see as many Florida District pastors and leaders there as possible. While we can't cover everyone's registration, if you're an assigned pastor and unable to afford registration, let us know, we want to help.

The Pastors and Leaders Conference (PALCON) is a gathering designed for all Nazarene clergy — including pastors, chaplains, evangelists, staff ministers, missionaries, educators, and students. The conference features worship gatherings and learning conversations centered around a shared theme.

Join us June 11–13 as we come together to inspire and equip those called to ministry.

Pastors, let’s call our young people to explore missions. In the weeks ahead you’ll begin hearing more about The Cause, a Global Missions initiative to empower young people to explore what it means to live their life on mission with God.

Save the Date: Ignite the Cause—January 3-6, 2027
For the cause of the King and the cause of the Kingdom

Calling all young adults ages 18–28! Mark your calendars for the inaugural Ignite the Cause, January 3-6, 2027. This first-ever event, hosted by USA/Canada Mobilization, will bring together participants from across the USA and Canada for powerful worship, mission discernment, and spiritual formation.

Ignite the Cause invites you to explore God’s Word, hear stories about what God is doing in the world, and be a part of His mission.

Through dynamic sessions with a global perspective, practical workshops, and intentional mentorship, you’ll discover how God has uniquely equipped you for his mission—whether locally, regionally, or globally.

Be part of this groundbreaking event as we launch a new generation of missionaries and Kingdom leaders to impact the world. More details coming soon!

Congratulations to Pastor Lamar Courtney and the church board from Orlando United Church of the Nazarene on an excellent church/pastor review last night. This is a thriving multigenerational multicultural congregation that also partners with three other congregations (two Spanish and one Vietnamese) and also sponsors multiple fresh expressions of church.
