As a ministry of Hope of the Nations, whose mission is to bring hope through knowledge of Jesus Christ, this school exists to train up the national leaders and pastors who serve in Tanzania. The biblical instruction offered at this school will be stylistically patterned after the verse by verse instruction model of Calvary Chapel Bible College. Classes will be on a 3-week revolving schedule. As such, we ask our instructors to commit to a minimum of three-weeks availability, in order to complete one full class cycle. However, if you are unable to commit to this length of stay, please do not let that stop you from applying and let us know what time you are able to devote it may be possible from time to time to coordinate team teachers and/or to offer one three day lectures as opposed to a full class. Accommodations and food will be provided to all instructors, however at this time no monetary compensation is available. Teaching may be conducted in English, and we will provide a Swahili translator when necessary. We thank God that He has directed your attention to our ministry and look forward to learning about the training in which we may be able to partner.
