The Pastoral Leadership Training Institute (PLTI) trains pastors and church leaders in Biblical, theological, leadership, and reconciliation principles and practices while cultivating pastoral skills and encouraging an expansive love of God and others. The program seeks to achieve ALARM’s goal which is to strengthen and empower the African church by equipping the untrained leadership with basic pastoral skills and ministerial tools. Our passion is to enable the African leaders to develop Biblically based churches that are spiritually vibrant and whose message is culturally relevant, ministering to the whole person and bringing hope and healing to the hurting communities.

ALARM DR Congo facilitated the 3rd and 4th sessions for the current class of 32 PLTI pastors in Rubaya/Masisi. These sessions were held on July 19th-24th and September 19th-25th. As these pastors came together, they attended sessions about Christian Theology, the New Testament Greek, Communication of God’s Word, and Antique and Medieval Philosophy. These leaders are passionate and intelligent individuals who share a passion for spreading God’s Word and serving their communities.
