Beginning immediately, Northwest leadership will develop plans based on the successful Souls West program operated by the Pacific Union Conference. While Northwest students will be initially trained through a cooperative arrangement with the Souls West program, plans include the opening of a Northwest training site at a summer camp or academic setting by the 2011-2012 school year.

 

The Souls West concept has already impacted Northwest evangelism. Three graduates of the program are currently working in Northwest conferences: Jeff Kimmel in Idaho, Jordana Ashburn in Upper Columbia and John Miller in Washington.

 

“We’re serious about this for several reasons,” says Dan Serns, NPUC ministerial director. “It means being faithful to our Adventist mission and developing the spiritual leadership of our youth and young adults in the area of soul-winning. And, we believe it will bring revival to each of our churches, schools and institutions.”
