Once you’ve submitted an application, your current Life Group Shepherd will reach out to set up an interview with you.
After your interview, spend some time working through each of the trainings below. For each of the 4 categories there is a verse to memorize, a video to watch, and a practice to complete.
In August, when you come back to school, we’ll have a training to help equip you and launch you into a year of leading.
Our team will send out a registration for the event later on.
