"YWAM's training schools for pioneer church planting (School Of Frontier Missions, etc.) provide a good introduction to the work of reaching the unreached, but ongoing and timely field-based training is essential. We must help one another continue to grow in the Lord and in ministry skills. Church Planting Coaches trains church planters through both pre-field training in schools and church planting seminars, and through the regional coaches themselves, as they meet with team leaders on the ground. Following are some of the Seminars and Workshops offered by CP Coaches." -- CPC Int'l Coordinators
