Are you open to a wider vision, a deeper commitment, and a strong desire for teamwork and partnership with other Christians around the world, particularly through CWM member churches?
We invite you to apply for CWM’s Training in Mission (TIM) – Diploma in Mission Studies Programme – to be held from late April to November 2026 in the Philippines and South Africa. Applications are due 25 February.
For over 40 years, the TIM programme has been part of CWM’s efforts to equip young people for the ministry and mission of its member churches while enhancing the scope for the church’s public witness. TIM empowers a new generation of leaders with a practical and radical understanding of what witnessing to Christ means.
TIM provides the opportunity for youths ages 18 to 29, single, and not yet ordained to participate in a six-and-half-month programme entailing intensive mission learning in theory and in practice through classes, exposure visits, challenging projects, and hands-on work in various contexts.
Participants who complete the assessment requirements of the TIM Programme will receive a Diploma in Mission Studies, a qualification which recognises applied leadership skills in mission and education to enhance employment opportunities or to work in a voluntary capacity.
CWM’s member churches and ecumenical partners benefit from the nurturing of qualified individuals with knowledge and skills to successfully lead areas of responsibility in a wide range of Christian mission roles.
