SOLEAD — Equipping God's People for a Lifetime of Fruitfulness
School of Leadership and Development (SOLEAD) is a 9-month Christian life and ministry training and development program primarily for new staff of SCCC. It involves classroom equipping and practical field ministry at a campus or an area of service, which provides on-the-job-training as lessons are applied in a real-life context.
The course aims to build a core foundation into each trainee for a life-long commitment to:
- Living for Christ
- Personal Life Change
- Ministry Effectiveness
- Transforming Leadership
... in order to equip God's people for a lifetime of fruitfulness. SOLEAD is an opportunity to grow your heart for God, be equipped for ministry and help extend His kingdom.
"You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit—fruit that will last. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name" (John 15:16)
This is for you if you ...
- Are joining Singapore Campus Crusade for Christ as a full-time staff member or Campus Ministry STINTer (Short-term Internship).
- Are a working adult or fresh graduate with 9 months availability and desire to be equipped with the necessary competencies in evangelism and discipleship, movement-building and leadership skills.
