The National Association of Pastoral Musicians (NPM) is a membership organization primarily composed of musicians, musician-liturgists, clergy, and other leaders of prayer devoted to serving the life and mission of the Church through fostering the art of musical liturgy in Catholic worshiping communities in the United States of America.
The basic purpose of an NPM Chapter is:
- To deepen the spiritual life of each pastoral musician;
- To encourage social interaction among pastoral musicians;
- To provide an educational forum on current issues affecting musical practice in the parish, both for musicians and clergy;
- To improve the skills of every pastoral musician:
- Musical,
- Liturgical,
- Pastoral, and
- Leadership
