The Ministry of Prayer training program is a two-year course. Classes begin on September 1st and continue until the end of July the following year. After completion of the modules, the year concludes with a five-day retreat in Northern California, held on-site in August. Students are required to attend two Breathwork sessions per year. Breathworks occur several times throughout the year and are offered at many different locations. We assist you in finding options in your local area.
All Application and Registration Documentation and Deposit must be submitted by September 1st, for your September Orientation call at the end of the month. Processing of an application requires a non-refundable fee of $45.00, and registration requires a non-refundable deposit of $500.00. Upon acceptance to the program, the application fee and the registration deposit are applied to the remaining tuition balance.
