Ministry Training Strategy
CURRENT MINISTRY APPRENTICES
Sarah
Hi I’m Sarah! I have always known about God’s love for me, but it wasn’t until during high school years that I wanted a relationship with God. It stuck out to me that God’s love for me wasn’t for the future version of me but for me now. He chose to love me first and proved it through sending his Son, Jesus to die for me. I realise now how God was working in my life and growing me, especially being involved in sharing the gospel at beach missions and holiday camps. They have deeply grown my love for people and desire to share Jesus with them. Which is one of the reasons why I decided to begin an apprenticeship at my church to gain training and experience to see if full-time ministry is something I want to spend my day-to-day life doing.
I’d love for you to partner with me on this journey, either through prayer or financial support.
David
Hey, I’m David. I grew up in a Christian family and have always known and loved Jesus. However it wasn’t until high school that I took my faith more seriously and began to understand my deep need for Jesus to rescue me and bring me back into a right relationship with God. I’m passionate about sharing the gospel with others so that they too can be saved and know the God who loves them. In doing a ministry apprenticeship I’m hoping to grow in my own faith, as well as ministry skills so that I can be set up for a life-time of serving Jesus.
If you’d like, please consider supporting me in my ministry training.
MINISTRY TRAINING AT CCBC
Our Ministry Training isn’t just for CCBC; it’s part of a larger vision shared by like-minded churches across Australia through the Ministry Training Strategy (MTS). MTS aims to equip and empower gospel workers for the critical mission of reaching the millions of people in our country.
The MTS program is a 2-year journey where trainees are immersed in gospel ministry, learning to share the good news and teach the Bible under the guidance of an experienced trainer.
By the end of the program, our prayer is that trainees will either pursue further theological study, equipping them for a lifetime of ministry, step into vocational ministry roles at CCBC or other gospel-centered churches, or return to their professions with a strengthened ability to lead and serve in gospel ministry.
This program is dedicated to growing a fruitful church that sends and supports workers for the harvest. Our ministry apprentices commit to full-time service across various areas of church life, all while being equipped and trained for gospel ministry. Apprentices step out in faith, raising their own support as they trust in God’s provision and affirm their calling. As a church, let’s join in this important mission by supporting our apprentices through prayer, financial gifts, and ongoing encouragement. Together, let’s grow and equip workers for the future harvest!
