Welcome
to the full-time community that is LeaderTreks! For two years, Summiteers are
poured into, learning the most cutting edge leadership skills in the field of
youth ministry. The world is their classroom. As leadership principles are
learned, they are also applied in practical ways with students and youth
pastors. Summiteers spend their time facilitating leadership training events
and leading mission and wilderness trips all over the world. The thoughts and
desires of changing the world are given feet as Summiteers learn how to practically
lead for Christ.
Each
year LeaderTreks selects a group of four to six (4-6) people to participate on
the Summit Team. This team will stay together for all two (2) years of the
program.
