The following services are currently offered or will be provided soon:
· Training in leadership: we provide training opportunities in the areas of leadership principles and practice for Christian leaders, especially pastoral leaders in executive and management positions. We have hosted such events for international speakers who want to minister to key leaders in Haiti.
· Resources to strengthen families: we host retreats and seminars for couples.
· Evangelistic events : we host luncheons and lectures with seasoned international speakers and national experts on various topics of interest to the professional and business leaders. These events have an evangelistic purpose.
· Counseling : we will have an network of Christian counselors throughout the country so that people in need can find a qualified counselor in their region. We specialize in counseling training for clergy. We want to equip mature Christian leaders in premarital, financial/ stewardship, and trauma counseling.
· Helps (relief): we will serve as a reputable channel for funding worthwhile projects in Haiti.
· Consulting & research: we offer consulting services to churches and Christian organizations on leadership, management, fundraising, Bible training, Christian ethics, as well as social trends affecting the Christian community. We will use our network of key leaders and our critical thinking abilities to facilitate gatherings of top executives and young leaders to discuss issues, research solutions, and plan advocacy strategies for positive change in our world.
· Music & Art: we promote Christian musicians who can be ambassadors for the Christian message and worldview. We hold concerts and will have training for talented musicians. We hope to develop a concert circuit to bring the good Christian music to the local communities and to facilitate the marketing of the tapes and CDs.
