The 2009 NPM National Convention in Chicago offers a wealth
of opportunities — practical hands-on learning, stimulating
ideas, vibrant sung prayer, spiritual reflection, and much more.
Come and gather with colleagues and friends, new and old.
Musicians, clergy, liturgists, and other leaders of worship —
anyone who loves the liturgy and its music — won’t want to miss
this exciting event!
Conveniently Located
