General
information
The
Tower of Pisa is one the most famous Italian monuments in the
world! It was built in 1174 but the construction was suspended
when the tower started to lean on one side because of weak
foundations. The constructors tried to solve the worst of the
problems building an upper level which inclined in the opposite
direction. The building was completed towards the second half of
the XIV century. Today the top of the 8 storey cylindrical
building reaches 56 metres and the centre of the mass is shifted
6.40 metres! Are your
foundations weak as well?
Does your life feel "out of tilt"?
We want to help you build your life on the strongest foundation
that exists: Jesus Christ. How? Inviting you to take part in
our... Discipleship Training School!
What's a
Discipleship Training School?
A Discipleship Training School (DTS) is a five and a half month
course for young people over 18, coming together for in-depth
teaching and training in Christian living, evangelism, and
missions.
Those taking part come from different places, representing
different denominations.
The DTS offers a period of theoretical and practical training,
and is attended by believers from different parts of Italy, and
from other nations. School outreaches have gone to different
places in Italy, Albania, Africa and Brazil.
The main aspects of the
three-month Lecture Phase include time for personal devotion,
teaching by international speakers, small group meetings for
sharing, personal application and prayer, as well as time to get
to know the fellow students and explore the area. The school has
a strong emphasis on Christian character development and
personal application of truth. Subjects covered in the lectures
will include:
- Knowing God
- Hearing God's voice
- Relationships with God and
other people
- Prayer and worship
- The Christian and the
enemy
- Evangelism and mission
- The person and work of the
Holy Spirit
- Relationships and marriage
- The Word of God
The two-month Outreach
Phase will include opportunities for the students in the
school to share their faith with others through methods of
ministry such as street evangelism, drama, music and
presentations in schools.
