Jethro Pastors Conference Jefreys Bay.5-6 May 2021.

Jethro is a training programme for pastors. Because of our conviction that building up the church begins with equipping its leaders, Jethro focuses entirely on the vital pastoral qualities needed to lead the church in a biblical manner. If a pastor grows in fellowship with God and in his vision of the task set before him, the church he serves will grow as well.
To equip pastors for their work, we take the five core responsibilities Jethro put before Moses in Exodus 18:19-23 as our starting point. Visiting his son-in-law in the desert, Jethro observed that Moses’ approach to leadership was exhausting both himself and the people. In his wisdom, Jethro offered Moses a basic toolkit for leading God’s people effectively.
Why Jethro?
Throughout the world, there is a great need among pastors for clear, Biblical teaching about their identity and their key responsibilities. Without such teaching, many struggle to fulfil their calling effectively. Particularly in countries in which the church is growing despite oppression and poverty, most pastors have little or no access to adequate training. This education deficiency has a huge impact on their work and their congregations. Spiritual heresies, syncretism and power abuse by pastors are widespread – and understandably so, if you consider the fact that many of these pastors have not had the opportunity of being thoroughly educated in Biblical pastoral principles. Thorough teaching is often either unavailable or too expensive. For many, however, attending a one- or two-week seminar or training programme several times a year aimed at learning and directly applying practical church leadership principles is a lot more feasible. It is this small window of opportunity that Jethro focuses on.

Our mission
Jethro’s mission is to equip as many pastors as possible for effectively fulfilling the five core responsibilities of a pastor. We have developed five training modules of three days each to cover these core issues.
