Theological Training
On the global landscape, as many 84% of churches are led by men and women who have no or limited theological training. In 2008 we began facilitating practical theological training in the city of Harare, Zimbabwe. These four-day intensives have proven successful as we design and focus on curriculum contextual to their ministry locations. The pastors and leaders who have attended these events have taken this vital information and applied it to their everyday ministries.
We have found similar results in the country of Haiti. Our alliance has expanded to local pastors in the southwestern region of Haiti as we facilitate Pastor's conferences providing theological training, practical ministry principles, and vital resources.
Our strategic partnership with SEMINAIRE THEOLOGIQUE EVANGELIQUE RENAISSANCE D’HAITI (STERH) is in the heart of Jeremie, Haiti. It is a governmentally approved seminary that offers a Bachelor’s Degree in Theological Studies. Many students have no financial means to afford tuition for this invaluable education, and we partner to assist in this area.
