The “Ministers in Training” (MIT) program is designed to provide a solid foundation for spiritual growth and to equip believers to function effectively as part of the Body of Christ. These courses are foundational, but they are not designed only for new Christians. Believers of all ages and levels of maturity will benefit from completing this training program.
These courses are a little more in depth than traditional Sunday School courses. Regular attendance is expected and there are regular homework assignments and occasional tests.
Participation in the MIT program is required for those who wish to serve in any leadership position and certain other ministry position at CFC. In addition, certain MIT courses are required for those serving in specific ministries. (Exceptions can be made in the case of those with extensive previous training and/or ministry experience.)
