Greetings, 

As a valuable member of the community and supporter of the National Black Evangelical Association, we would like to invite you to serve as a sponsor for NBEA’s upcoming 60th Anniversary Convention: Looking Black, Moving Forward, Lifting Jesus, October 13 – 14, 2023! This convention will be an exciting, cross-generational gathering of memorializing and mentoring as we engage with dynamic speakers and workshop leaders, and celebrate our co-founder, Dr. Ruth Benella Lewis Bentley, PhD, as well as long time leaders, members and contributors. Discussion topics include Black Presence in the Bible, Relationships, Impact of Black Music, Addressing the Erasure of Black History, and Reparations NOW!

Your sponsorship will be a great blessing to the organization and allow you to market your business in our conference journal or just support the Lord’s work behind the scenes as an individual sponsor.  Each tier allows you to bring a designated number of registrants, or you may choose to donate these slots to young people who lack the resources to register on their own.

The Gold Tier is specifically for churches and ministries who would like to sponsor registration of ten young people at a special rate of $500.
