Quality Training & Internships

- Inform, Educate & Empower
- Network & Be A Resource
- Equip Staff, Volunteers & Peers

Source's vision and outreach is unique. Although many young adults see the need and have a heart to effectively reach out to at-risk subcultures, there are few organizations that are actually doing it and can equip them. Even with little advertising, more than 150 young adults from across North America, including staff and interns, have participated in trainings, seminars and internships in 2005. Graduate and seminary students, mission and social work majors, young adults who desire to effectively reach their alternative peers, brand new Christians and even grandparents have participated in trainings throughout the years.

Training at Source starts with a Biblical foundation and cultural relevance. It creates awareness, builds community and equips individuals based on their gifts. Participants also pray together, are mentored by staff, and experience serving poor and urban neighborhoods.

Our goal is to reach young people in the Midwest and worldwide. "It's just another layer of discipleship," says Peter Wohler, Source Director. "When you effectively raise up and equip young leaders, you'll see more fruit for the Kingdom across the world." Thousands have participated in outreaches and trainings since 1995.

Raising up and Equipping Leaders
Since 1995, approximately 1,000 young adults locally and from around North America have participated in Source outreaches, trainings, & internships. While some have returned to serve with Source, most went home to their own "Jerusalems" to start coffee shops, work in local churches, or start outreach and prayer groups. Others left to participate in full-time overseas missions. Regardless of the destination, all were excited to be a friend and a voice of God's love and forgiveness to others.
