Certified with Leadership Training International and trained by Crisis Consulting International


For the past 5 days, I have spent over 50 hours in a class room environment here in Jacksonville, Florida. (the location of the world headquarters for Calvary International). I have been able to spend time with and learn alongside top notch missionaries representing 11 different locations around the world. It truly has been a "growing experience" in the sense that mentally I have jumped leaps and bounds in just five days.
