Missions Conference 2025 is over, and we are already looking forward to Missions Conference 2026! Thank-you to all who attended! Check back here in the fall for details about next year's conference.
What is "Missions Conference"?
Nipawin Bible College's annual Missions Conference is a gathering of mission organizations, ministries, and bible camps from around the province, the country, and the world. It is an opportunity for NBC students, NBC staff, and members of the surrounding community to gain awareness of the gospel work happening in the world, as well as to better understand the role that they could have in helping to fulfil Christ's Great Commission. Come join us January 31 - February 1, and interact with the 25+ organizations that will be represented here this year.
What happens at Missions Conference?
Missions Conference consists of 4 main sessions, one or more mini-sessions, games and activities, and booth time. "Booth Time" is the time provided to go around to the display booths of the various organizations in attendance, viewing their material and interacting with the representative from the organization. For the first session, the focus is on camp ministry, while the remaining three sessions we focus on our theme "WHILE WE WAIT" and how that pertains to missions.
There is no cost to attend Missions Conference, and we particularly encourage churches to send members of their missions committee for this weekend. Mark January 31 - February 1 in your calendar.
Additional details, including the schedule, will be posted as event planning continues.

* Although we do our best to ensure that the organizations attending Missions Conference maintain core doctrinal beliefs that are closely in line with those of Nipawin Bible College (NBC), it is important to recognize that, among the organizations in attendance, there may be some beliefs and practices that do not fully align with those of NBC. Attendees are encouraged to engage thoughtfully, and with discernment. Not every viewpoint expressed during the conference necessarily reflects the official stance of NBC. Listen, learn, and engage in respectful dialogue. Despite theological nuances, our love for Christ binds us together. Let’s keep our focus on this greater purpose "WHILE WE WAIT."
