Bend, OR—Seventy turned-on, Holy Spirit empowered, and ready to go MTI graduates received their diplomas in Practical Ministry at Westside Foursquare Church on May 20, 2007. Pastor Ken Johnson brought congratulations. The requirements include completing seventy-two exams, six in-class ministry skill assignments, and six outside-class marketplace assignments. The thirty-six week institute prepares Christians for personal evangelistic ministry that is truly life-changing. Prior to graduating, each student minister is privileged to sit under a prophetic team composed mostly of previous MTI graduates that have learned how to hear God’s voice and can prophesy confirming words to others. The students really look forward to this time because the Lord will often confirm their immediate calling and give them the next step toward a fulfilling ministry. The month prior to graduating is overflowing with completing the true-false exams, making attempts in the marketplace in leading people to Christ and into the Holy Spirit baptism, and healing the sick. But it’s all worth it. They are all smiles when they come forward and receive their hard-earned diplomas. Congratulations MTI class of 2007! ♥
