Leaders Collective is a coaching and equipping track for young adults engaged in ministry within MB churches in Ontario. Its purpose is to invest in the strategic and holistic development of leaders so that they can engage effectively in the mission of God through the church, whether it is vocational or marketplace in expression. Out of a heart for collaboration and multiplying healthy leaders, our MB churches and partnering organizations-the Ontario Conference of MB Churches, Multiply and Camp Crossroads co-sponsor this leadership development track. Ryan Jantzi, ONMB Ministry Director, is directing the 2022-2023 program.

Leaders Collective provides opportunities for young leaders to grow in a rich cohort experience with others in their demographic; a broadening of skills and understanding of leadership through dialogue, retreats, readings, exposure to seasoned leaders and online discipleship coaching. All of this will be geared towards supporting the participant as they serve faithfully in their current youth ministry context.
