  • Purpose Statement:

    The purpose of Leadership and Ministry Preparation (LAMP) is to equip men and women for effective gospel ministry who are involved in the building of healthy churches that will multiply throughout the many ethnic, cultural and post Christian people groups in the urban centers of North America.

    Mission Statement:
