Register
When you decide which PowerPlant project you want to go to, register your group. Registration is open on August 1. Some projects will fill up faster than others. For groups who register between August 1 and January 14, no money is due until January 15 when a $60/person deposit is due to the PowerPlant office at the North American Mission Board. Groups who register on or after January 15 will owe the $60/person deposit at the point of registration.
You will receive confirmation from our office that your group is registered for a project. After you register, you will hear from the project coordinator for your project, who will inform you of project-specific details.
Sign Up Students
Even though your initial deposit is not due until January 15, do not wait until then to start promoting PowerPlant among your students! Your registration packet will include ideas on how to get students to commit to your mission trip and how to enlist adult leaders. We will also provide video resources for you to use during large group sessions with your students to get them interested. We encourage you to set a December deadline for your students to pay at least $60 towards their portion of the trip. This will help you see who is committed to the trip, and help you finalize how many deposits to send to NAMB by January 15.
Pay Deposit
A $60/person is due by January 15 for groups that register between August 1 and January 14. The deposit is non-refundable and non-transferable to the balance.
Project Preparation
There are two main parts of project preparation for which group leaders are responsible. The first part is transportation logistics. You are responsible for getting your group to and from the project city, and each group is responsible for transportation during the project.
The second part of project preparation will center around your ministry assignments. When we receive your deposits at NAMB, we will send you the information on how to access project preparation material on our website. The material includes a group leader guide, participant forms for your group, a project timeline that will list important tasks and dates for you to complete, and a student My PowerPlant page.
Pay First Payment
A $60/person is due by March 15. This payment is non-refundable and non-transferable to the balance.
Ministry Team Assignments
You will receive specific ministry team assignments from your project coordinator at least six weeks before the start of your project. This will give you time to communicate with the church planter you have been teamed up with to ensure proper preparation for your group.
