Formal Training options exist in Accra for those who are able to access them. For the majority of Ghanaian pastors and church leaders, however, accessing formal training remains impractical if not impossible. TLI’s non-formal training team has been investing in pastors and church leaders in Northern Ghana for nearly a decade and has recently launched its first training site in southern Ghana as well. In partnership with local leaders, we gather 60 Ghanaian and Ivorian pastors and church leaders together three times per year for structured and intensive study of God's Word. The goal of this training is to better equip local church leaders to understand and communicate God's Word in their context of ministry.
