As a
means to
"equip the

ministry training. It is intended to prepare the hearts of
God’s servants and lay a foundation for those seeking to
serve Him through the local church.
How Will It Operate?________________
Each class will be comprised of presentation on the basics
of biblical service to God, discussions, questions and answers
regarding the assigned homework. Classes begin
promptly at 7:00PM each Friday
and end by 9:00PM. The homework is comprised of listening to
an MP3 message that is on our website (see link below), and answering questions in the
Called to Serve homework download that accompanies week 1
and 2.
