We have not had any new students for the last couple of years and have kind of changed our direction.  We still continue to look for ways to raise up new pastors and to prepare them for the work but we are turning to our existing churches and pastors to assist us.  The local pastors recognize who in their congregations have the potential to be raised up as leaders and to see the fruit of a calling upon their life.  They are beginning to train them to be their assistants and to work closely with them.  We are also, when we feel they are ready, placing these "trainees" in a lay person leadership position, under the supervision of their pastor.  After we have seen the proven long term interest on the part of the candidates, then we will put them into a more formal program of study.  But it allows them to get some real "hands on" and confirmation to their callings.  We have two men who are working in these capacities currently; to cover the church in Ocumbla and also for a new work that we are raising up in the village of Dos Quebradas.
