PROGRAM OVERVIEW:
Leadership isn’t something you wait to step into someday. It starts now.
The Leadership Development Program (LDP) is built on three steps: Know, Grow, and Lead. You’ll discover who you are, grow into who you’re becoming, and learn to lead by serving others. Along the way, you’ll get real ministry experience alongside practical leadership training that prepares you for whatever comes next.
Each school year, we invite a group of undergraduate students to join our staff for about 20 hours a week. This is a paid internship with real responsibility. You won’t be watching from the sidelines. You’ll be part of the team, doing work that matters.
If you’re ready to grow as a leader and make a difference while you’re still in school, LDP is for you.
Applications for the 2027–28 school year are now open and close at 11:59 p.m. on January 19, 2027. If you have any questions, please email [email protected].
