Leadership Development

Developing Leaders to Help Communities Thrive

We believe training leaders in the communities we serve helps change the lives of people living in physical and spiritual poverty. We invest in, and partner with, North-American churches, global ministries, and local church/ministry leaders. We equip these leaders for greater local and global impact through: Consistent exposure to Biblical truths and leadership principles. Strategic training and mentoring. Resources and tools.

Developing strong leaders starts with the ER team. We provide leadership training workshops, personal and work-related tools, staff retreats, and opportunities to attend seminars.

With 200+ kids attending our Dream Centers and mobile education programs, we seek to Identify and train the next generation of leaders. This training includes youth leadership programs, retreats and camps as they age into high school.

Each trainee group contains people with the ability to influence others in their community. We recruit them as leaders-in-training and invite them into monthly discipleship and mentoring. We help them grow their personal qualities (self, time, finance, family), spiritual disciplines, and interpersonal and pastoral skills.

We help communities thrive by identifying felt needs and working with local leaders to increase their effectiveness. This includes trauma training for local school administrators/teachers, opening our facilities for community engagement, and inviting program graduates to continue to learn, share and grow. We see great opportunity supporting local needs by inviting volunteer teams to work on community projects like painting, clean-up and renovations, and youth camps.
