What Our Candidates Are Saying About Us...
"It is good that Ministry Development Services, the Methodist Church and Conference are helping the potential leaders in the church discern where they are being called to serve before they have committed years to their education. The process is very intentional about helping each individual to fulfill their call. It is helping me to understand where I fit into the bigger picture! This is a very helpful program and it is very beneficial to all who participate!"
"The report received is thorough and very helpful. It was a pleasure meeting the Counselor and fascinating to learn the results of the profiles and inventories taken.
