Our Mission
Prayer, Evangelism & Discipleship
Our mission is to exalt Jesus Christ as Lord and encourage each believer for the work of ministry through our threefold mandate: prayer that transforms and empowers us, discipleship that builds mature believers, and evangelism that reaches the world with Christ’s love.
We engage in this mission with dependence on God, and in cooperation with all brothers and sisters in the body of Christ.

If you realize that your ministry has become surface-level, or that you've just reached the end of your own capacity, then we want to help. Time with the Lord in prayer should be refreshing and life-giving, not merely an obligation. It's time for you to come back to the source.
We can't tap into grace without coming to the Father as our source. We can only pour out what God has already poured into us. As leaders, it can be easy to run through the motions of ministry without depending on the Author and Finisher of our faith.
"Time and again, I have encountered the Lord's limitless supply, His abundant flow of grace that meets me right where I am and empowers me beyond my own ability. The good news is that this expression of grace is available to every believer!"

"Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven." Matthew 5:15-16

Your church doesn't need another program. It needs more leaders. Most pastors simply don't know where to begin.
So how do you find and disciple not just believers, but strong leaders who can lead others?
Leadership isn't a cut-and-dried formula. We realize it involves spiritual and emotional maturity, not just a set of predictable behaviors or habits.
A desire to see God raise up the next generation of leaders birthed the DOVE Global Leadership and Ministry School. The school is led by seasoned pastors and movement directors, pioneers who understand what it means to build from scratch.

Sometimes we put so much energy into managing how other people perceive us that we miss out on what God wants to do in the moment.
As leaders it’s important to guard our hearts from fear, so that are able to move in faith.
