Year-Round Mentoring Group on Disciple-Making for Senior Leaders

with John Musselman & Wojtek Kowalewski

What Mentors and Graduates Are Saying

“This course came at a perfect time during my ministry when I felt like I was plateauing. The course helped me get refocused on what God has called me to do here and gave me some really great ideas on how to reformat the structure of how I do discipleship to make it more effective. I am so thankful that ELF offers these YRM Courses. I love being able to have access to excellent teachers that are so knowledgeable, humble and that have a strong passion for Christ. I also enjoy meeting other people that are in similar ministries throughout Europe..”

— Greg Sivulka, missionary in Sebia

“I am a pastor of a young and growing church in Gdansk, north Poland. We see the need for discipleship in our evangelical churches. This YRM has equipped me for more fruitful ministry, to take better care of the people God sends to our church. This YRM will help to build God's church deeper, stronger and more devoted to Christ.”

— Adriann Stróżek
