The All India Pastors’ Conference is a great opportunity for pastors and men aspiring to ministry to enjoy singing together, sit under faithful preaching by Indian pastors, fellowship with brothers from churches across the country, receive helpful resources for ministry, and encourage one another.
The All India Pastors’ Conference is a collaborative indigenous initiative, led by Indian pastors of evangelical churches from different parts of India who belong to the Reformed tradition.
So far, the conference has happened 7 times (Once in Lucknow, twice in Hyderabad, twice online, and twice in Mumbai). This year’s conference will be the 8th All India Pastors’ Conference.
All the sessions and panel discussions and resources will be in English, and so this conference is only for men who can communicate in English.
