  • Pastoral internships is an integral part of being a training church with a heart to launch new leaders into ministry.

LEAD Academy

LEAD Academy hosts biblically based seminar style courses for our congregation and our communities that promote principles and practices for loving God wholly and loving neighbors radically. We believe that as we grow in our knowledge and understanding of God, we also grow in confidence and courage to live out our faith in the world.  Anyone with an interest in the subject at hand is welcome to participate. 

2 Peter 3:17-18 You therefore, beloved, knowing this beforehand, take care that you are not carried away with the error of lawless people and lose your own stability. But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.
