* Leadership development
* Books and study materials in their own context.
Pastors will be equipped to preach God's Word faithfully and lead their congregations biblically.
Churches that are healthy and vibrant inspire hope and change in their communities.
Help church pastors and staff have access to pastoral training and leadership development.

A church built on God's truth and grace has power to shine life
into a world darkened by despair.
