Leadership Training Institute

Holistic Empowerment for Leaders

Five LTI students standing together.

Most educational options in northern Uganda lack training in character and spiritual development. Many religious alternatives address spiritual development but ignore the critical leadership skills needed for individuals to thrive. Favor’s Leadership Training Institute addresses both in a blend of in-class and hands-on instruction tailored to produce powerful ministers of spiritual and cultural transformation engaged in the work of renewal before they ever leave the classroom. Comprised of six separate schools, the Institute builds up every facet of the student’s character and vocation over two years, from ministerial to business skills.

This university level 4-year degree program caps effective preparation for empowered leadership. The training fills academic gaps that are common from prior educational institutions while adding training not found elsewhere in northern Uganda or South Sudan. The coursework is intended to be completed in 3-5 years by working ministers and professional leaders.

Favor operates a Leadership training Institute in each nation, through our offices or rented facilities and dedicated trainers. Though our team has dreamed, prayed, and prepared curriculum for the LTI for years, we only began our first classes in 2019. In January 2020, 95 missionaries enrolled from Uganda, 52 from S. Sudan, and 32 people enrolled in our new 2-year Bible College.

What You Can Do

You can support the university training of an empowered leader for only $120 monthly, or a group of four friends can support an individual for only $30 monthly each! Your support allows a future leader to obtain necessary equipping without having to tax extended family with costs beyond essentials. This monthly cost covers the tuition expense at Favor’s cost to provide the materials, mentors, and professional experiences. The result will be equipping leaders to sustain God’s presence and truth into every influential mountain of culture.

A Word from Favor

“When penitent, pleading, prevailing, persevering, persistent prayer takes priority and preeminence over pride, people pleasing, programs, preconceived ideas, problems, pulpits, and performances, then and only then…will My presence and power permeate this planet once again!!”
— Carole Ward

“A wise man will listen and will add to his wisdom, and the intelligent will gain leadership.”

- Proverbs 1:5
