PFI’s INSTITUTE FOR LEADERSHIP FORMATION & MINISTRY DEVELOPMENT (ILF) “WHERE EXCELLENCE IS A JOURNEY”

During the recent PFI Board meetings a new PFI continuing leadership training and ministry development, based in Singapore, was inaugurated whose Purpose Statement is; “To affirm the calling to leadership and to enable these leaders (those so called) through intentional leadership formation, to serve their National ministries in the fulfilment of the PF Mission.” The Institute of Leadership Formation (ILF)’s threefold Objectives are aimed at implementing an intentional and integrated process of:

• Assisting emerging national ministry leaders in discerning their vocation and calling to ministry leadership.

• Supporting emerging, new, and established leaders, in a guided process of spiritual formation designed to nurture and develop the character of spiritual leadership.

• Equipping these leaders with leadership and management skills by providing learning opportunities and ongoing mentoring and coaching.

The inaugural session will take place in the second half of April. Besides, there will be an LTI training seminar during the International Council session in August 2005 in Hong Kong., and another one in November (location to be determined).
