MINISTRY LEADERSHIP CERTIFICATE
The Ministry Leadership Certificate program is designed to help pastors and churches prepare their saints for the work of ministry to build up the body of Christ. This program is a unique program in partnership with Western Seminary, This program will provide classes on Biblical overviews in the old and new testaments, leadership, ministry tracks and spiritual formation.
ORDINATION
The ordination process begins and ends with a leader called by God to the Gospel ministry. It also involves the recognition of this call by the local church where the leader is serving. The Venture Church Network family of churches and church leaders are also involved in advising the church and in serving the ordination candidate. Thus, the ordination process is detailed below for VCN churches and leaders:

HEALTHY CHURCH ASSESSMENTS
Like a routine “check-up” is good for the ongoing well-being of your body, a Church Health Assessment gives you an understanding of the current health of your church body. Whether your church is thriving, plateaued, or in decline – a Church Health Assessment will help you make informed, bold, next step decisions as you carry out your God-given leadership responsibilities.
If your church is…
- getting ready for (or in) a transition of any kind…
- preparing for a time of strategic planning…
- contemplating future expansion…
. . . a Church Health Assessment will help you move toward greater health and ministry impact.
