Now more than ever, students need us. Every day they face a world that has never hated their faith, convictions, and purity more that it does right now. SonPower is a life-changing, mission-focused, four-day conference for students to equip them for a lifestyle of worship and boldness.
With a rich 20+ year history, SonPower rests on the shoulders of its' previous ministry partners at Prism Music Group and LifeWay Christian Resources. Now produced by WORSHIP 3217, the event is anchored by a hands-on mission project and packed full of corporate times of singing, Bible study, games, and educational workshops in vocal and instrumental instruction as well as personal development. The conference concludes with the ultimate concert event when all students take to the stage for an unforgettable night of praise and worship.
Churches of all sizes and denominations are encouraged to attend, and having a student choir is not necessary. If you have students passionate about worship and missions, this event is what you're looking for.
