Here in KCC we have a passion to extend the kingdom of God among the nations, and so to fulfill our part in the Great Commission of Jesus Christ.

The vision behind this training programme is to connect with people, especially internationals, who have a similar passion to serve the Lord Jesus Christ.

We believe we can help equip such people with both a Biblical understanding of the purposes of God in the earth, and also with practical ministry skills with which to lead churches, plant new churches and take the gospel cross culturally to unreached people groups. 

We want to help people, especially internationals, to extend the kingdom of God through such means as care for the poor, education, business etc, and also through self sufficiency projects such as micro enterprise, farming etc.

This training will not just be classroom study, but will take place in the context of a dynamic growing local church, in which it will be possible to gain 'hands on' experience in various activities to practically develop various ministry skills.

Also this training will provide an opportunity to connect up with an experienced missionary minded church which will partner and support viable and godly kingdom and church planting initiatives among the nations.

It is geared especially towards those who lack opportunities in their home context and who would have difficulty in accessing quality training which would adequately prepare them for Christian service.

It will also provide a useful foundation for those in the UK, or other similar nations, who are planning to get involved in international mission.
