The DTS is a 5-month program that blends learning, small group activities, personal reflection, practical service and community living. It consists of a 3-month lecture phase and 2-month outreach phase focused on knowing God and making Him known.

We offer dormitories, single rooms, and couple rooms for staff, volunteers, and students. All rooms are comfortable and designed for community living. Food is served three times daily with both local Ghanaian and continental options.

We welcome volunteers in various capacities including the DTS program, mercy ministries, construction projects, and community development. You can apply through our website or contact us directly to discuss how your skills can serve the mission.

Costs vary depending on the program and duration. The DTS program has separate costs for the lecture and outreach phases. We encourage interested participants to contact us for current pricing and scholarship opportunities. We believe God provides for those He calls.
