The Body of Christ never grows old.  For this reason, the church believes in its young leaders and has developed this project to invest in those whom God is preparing.  We are all called to "seek first the Kingdom of God" (Matthew 6:33), therefore ALP interns ("ALPs") are trained to be spiritual leaders, people who "Rejoice always, pray continually, [and] give thanks in all circumstances" (1 Thess. 5:16-18).

They develop specific leadership skills through the mentorship of a gifted team of Christian leaders from both church and wider society.  Learning takes place in weekly small group workshops where they can engage with the mentors personally.  ALPs are also challenged with hands-on leadership tasks and delegated increased responsibility over the year in various mission tasks including ministries to youth, young adults and the economically disadvantaged.
