Apply for a Bountiful Preaching Cohort Grant

May 16, 2025

Are you a preacher looking for ways to enrich your worship practices? Would you be inspired to gather with fellow preachers for formation and connection of your own choosing? If joining a small group of peers in shared learning sparks your interest, we hope you’ll apply for a Bountiful Preaching Cohort.

Bountiful Preaching Cohorts are self-selected groups which craft their own two-year preaching enrichment opportunities. Cohorts will gather to develop their preaching skill, engage their contexts, and nurture their spirits. A few things of note:

  • Cohorts may apply for up to $2500/cohort member
  • Participants may be Ministers of Word and Sacrament or Commissioned Pastors
  • Half the members of each group must be PC(USA) and from the OPSF region. Groups with ecumenical or geographical diversity may apply (within these guidelines).
  • Selected cohorts also attend our lakeside Preaching with our Whole Selves EventSeptember 15-18, in Branson, MO.
