Ultimately, you will get out of the experience what you are able to put into it. The staff will do everything in its power to develop and equip you, and we have found that personal ownership in this process is key for the school to be successful for you but you need to come into the school with a desire to grow in God.

We are committed to your personal development as a disciple of Jesus and your fruitfulness in life, and we are here to serve and exhort you toward those ends. Jesus is our vision, and loving obedience to Him is the goal.
