International Ministries strives to educate, encourage, and empower young adult Christians for a lifelong journey of being God’s salt and light around the globe. Emerging Leaders is an ongoing discipleship initiative that focuses on developing young adults from 16 to 24 years old who come from various denominations and backgrounds. We walk alongside you as you prepare to serve in God’s mission.
The Emerging Leaders Cohort (ELC) is a young adult initiative designed to develop globally minded, spiritually grounded leaders. This one-year discipleship and leadership journey weaves together monthly online gatherings, a retreat, and an international short-term mission experience. Through mentorship, spiritual formation, and cross-cultural engagement, ELC prepares participants to confidently live as God’s salt and light in the world.
