We want to thank you for the overwhelming response we had to the 2020 National Convention. While it was a virtual one, we were so impressed by your connection and engagement with one another, our speakers and our exhibitors.
Now, this is just a reminder that the Virtual Convention platform is available for Full Convention Registrants until September 15. If you originally registered as a Limited Convention registration, which gave you access to the platform from July 7-10, you can upgrade your existing registration! Go to the convention slider on the home page and select “upgrade my existing registration”. For just $100 more, you have access to the hundreds of hours of content for over 2 more months.
Did you not attend the Virtual Convention but now have second thoughts after hearing the experiences of other attendees? We're pleased to announce that we are re-opening Virtual Convention registration TODAY!
Starting today for a limited time, we are opening registration for those who want to experience the Virtual Convention who hadn't registered previously. Email npmreg@npm.org for more information.
This is our last week of archived conversations before we return to new episodes!
Our next episode from the archives comes from Patti Such. This episode was originally released in May of last year and was produced by former Ministry Monday host Matt Reichert. Patti discusses how to recruit and manage volunteers for your ministry. While we understand that many parishes’ music ministry looks different, we know that new ministries are popping up and need volunteers at this time! For example: is your parish providing hospitality at the doors in the form of a “safety ministry”, assuring all have left their contact information who have attended a Mass? What about a cleaning ministry to clean & disinfect your church space after each liturgy?
Even in the midst of a pandemic, volunteers in ministry are certainly still needed, and we’re happy to bring you this episode today.
