EQUIPPING LEADERS. STRENGTHENING MINISTRY. SERVING PEOPLE.
Biblical Education. Leadership Development. Practical Ministry Preparation.
The FCCMI Leadership Training & Counseling Center equips emerging and established Christian leaders with biblical knowledge, practical ministry skills, leadership development, and opportunities to apply what they learn.
Through FCCMI’s educational partnership with CLST Global, students can pursue structured Christian education while participating in a supportive ministry environment that connects learning with service, leadership, and real-world ministry experience.
Whether you are preparing for ministry, strengthening your current leadership, developing your biblical knowledge, or seeking greater preparation to serve others, the Center provides a pathway for continued growth.

LEARNING THAT MOVES INTO SERVICE
Education should prepare leaders to serve.

WHO IS THE CENTER FOR
The FCCMI Leadership Training & Counseling Center is designed for adults who want to grow in biblical knowledge and become better equipped to serve.
It may be a good fit for aspiring ministers, pastors and ministry leaders, church volunteers, Christian educators, nonprofit and community leaders, pastoral-care workers, and individuals seeking structured biblical education for personal or ministry development.
No one has to already hold a ministry title to begin growing as a leader.
EDUCATION + MENTORSHIP + PRACTICAL EXPERIENCE
CLST Global provides the structured Christian educational component, while FCCMI creates a local environment for leadership development, mentoring, practical application, ministry experience, and community service.
This allows students to do more than complete courses.
Our goal is to help participants connect what they learn, how they lead, and whom they serve.
The pathway:
STUDY → DEVELOP → PRACTICE → SERVE → LEAD
PASTORAL CARE & SUPPORT
FCCMI provides Christ-centered, non-clinical pastoral care and support through biblical encouragement, prayer, mentoring, grief support, family guidance, education, and appropriate referrals.
When needs extend beyond the scope of pastoral care, FCCMI connects individuals and families with appropriately licensed clinical, medical, legal, or other professional providers.
