School Schedule
The DOVE Global Leadership and Ministry School provides a full year of training designed to equip you with both biblical foundation and Holy Spirit activation.

Structured Training for Every Season
A Clear Path for Lifelong Learning
Our school schedule is intentionally designed to give you a structured journey through the year. Each module focuses on a specific theme such as destiny, spiritual gifts, leadership, or missions. You will know when each class takes place, who is teaching, and what you will be learning. This rhythm allows you to grow steadily alongside your peers while receiving practical training and spiritual impartation that you can apply in your life, your church, and your community.
