Great Lakes Campus Leadership Team

Home » Locations » North America » USA » Great Lakes Campus

Our servant leadership team is first and foremost a team of men and women who love the Lord Jesus Christ, each other, and the people who attend the College of Prayer. We are committed to leading out of relationship, and by God's grace, to be a leadership team who strive to demonstrate unity, humility, integrity, transparency, servanthood, and love.  We have all completed the College of Prayer as students/attendees, and are thrilled to be a part of this exciting ministry of "mentoring leaders to reach a lost world through a revived church." 

"I will give them joy in my house of prayer." Isaiah 56:4
