Summer Institutes

Allelon Summer Institutes were born out of a question: How do we accelerate the learning and development of leaders in the frameworks and skills to form mission-shaped churches? Over the past 2 years, these three day intensive learning communities have provided frameworks, tools and resources to many pastors, leaders and denominational executives.

In 2008, we are launching Allelon Training Centers (ATCs) in a number of locations across North America. Our Summer Institutes will feature quality courses and tutorials at our Regional Training Centers in missional leadership, practice and formation. These courses are designed at a Masters Level for clergy, church planters, elders, deacons, youth leaders and men and women from a variety of backgrounds engaged in leadership in their local Christian community.

The following locations, dates and courses have been confirmed for summer 2008, and registration is now open.
