SCHEDULE

Every morning begins with passionate worship followed by a time of teaching and ministry. Every afternoon consists of a variety of activities aimed at practical application: organized workshops, small groups, soaking in God's presence, work duties, personal tutoring and band practice. Each evening students participate in various ministry events or enjoy free time.


OUTREACH

Outreach is designed to seize the opportunity to put training into action as you minister in other countries bringing God's love and truth to hungry people. You can anticipate involvement in teaching, preaching, Youth and Kids' ministry, worship leading, prophetic evangelism, dream interpretation, community projects, dance, drama and much, much more!


STUDENTS

Experience an energetic, cross-cultural environment as you pursue God with young adults from around the world! To date, students have come from over 40 different countries: Europe, Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Asia, the Caribbean, and North America to name but a few. As diverse as is the culture of each student, so is their vocational background: high school graduates to PHd Graduates, cashiers to carpenters, dancers to doctors and farmers to factory workers - we view variety as the spice of life!


THE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT

The learning environment is designed for you to benefit from a style of teaching which enables you to draw from Scripture, from the Holy Spirit and, as well, from the insights of teachers and other students. You will use every method of learning from guided self-discovery, lecture and lively group interaction; you'll enjoy not just the impartation of facts, but also the sharing of lives and practicing of truth.
