God is doing incredible things around the world through the International Training Centers, and YOU can become a part of it! Countless lives are being touched, transformed, and trained in the Word and Person of Jesus. Right now there are over 50 centers waiting to be opened, but because of the lack of resources, we have been unable to send a training package to them. Each training center trains 15-20 students each year, so there are close to 1,000 pastors and leaders not being trained THIS YEAR that could be if we had your help and support. Consider becoming involved in one or all of the following three ways...
1) Financially
Would you consider giving toward this tremendous work and movement of God? Would your church, family, or yourself be willing to open a training center to spread the Gospel to countless lives? These training centers are training hundreds of pastors and leaders around the world who are affecting their congregations, cities, communities, and countries. If you can't give the full $1800, would you give a part? Every penny touches lives. Much effort and care goes into assuring that each training package is sent to a man or woman of God with high character, integrity, and a servant's heart.
2) Prayerfully It not only takes financial resources to open Biblical training centers... it takes prayer! We are looking for individuals and churches who will partner with training centers around the world through prayer and encouraging communication. Please be in prayer for the students, directors, and training centers throughout the world. Several of our centers are in Christian-hostile areas... please be praying for their safety and the openness of people's hearts as they share the Gospel.

3) Missionally Since we do not build buildings for training centers, most teams that go, do so simply to encourage and share the gospel. Anyone who has a passion for Jesus Christ, a heart to see the Message spread, and can raise their own support is invited to go.

It takes resources to open a Biblical training center. However, the cost it takes to open one center is drastically minuscule compared to what it would take to send one pastor to one semester of seminary. We can open a self-sustaining fully-functional training center for $1800. Every penny of this money is used for resources and equipment (no administrative costs). How does this work? We mail them a box containing DVD courses (enough for one year of schooling) and wire them the remaining money in order to purchase a TV, DVD player, a generator, and electricity adaptors. Many of our training centers do not have electricity so it is vital they have a generator for power. Once the training package has arrived, the center can immediately begin training pastors and leaders. Because of the design of the resources, once a center has the training package, they can continue training students year after year. And many of the students who graduate often ask for a training package to start a training center where they are from (some students travel several hours by bicycle to get to the training center).
