What is the Leadership Development School?

The Leadership Development School (LDS) is a 2-year program for those interested in diving deeper into their relationship with God and learning more about themselves while growing in valuable leadership skills for ministry work.

Participants will lead out in one or more areas of ministry at our centre throughout their time on this course as well as attend monthly Development Sessions to aid in their personal and professional growth.


Be shepherds of God’s flock that is under your care, watching over them—not because you must, but because you are willing…” 1 Peter 5:2
