About national challenge week



National Challenge Week is a collaborative developmental conference hosted by the WPF Youth Development Council, Hope Corps, and Wilson University. The Challenge is, “Developing the next generation of Apostolic leaders.”
​
Human potential exists on a broad spectrum. The possibilities for advancing the Kingdom of God are beyond imagination, and start with dynamic, personal spiritual formation. How do we see correctly, the deep of possibility that lies just under the surface of each individual life? How might we develop the next generation, if we could envision not just the problems, but anticipate the possibilities? What are we capable of becoming, and how does that becoming expand Apostolic effectiveness?
This year, there are five areas of focus: Formal Ministry, Youth Development, Business as Mission, Church Administration, and Leadership. The contributing ministries have proven platforms at the forefront of development across the Apostolic movement, many of whom travel at their own expense. We are thankful for their willingness to join us in expanding this vision!
To all seekers of lifelong Apostolic effectiveness…. come and be a part of this journey with us!!!

Exciting News!
Catch-up itw
Hope Corps is offering a one-time catch-up ITW opportunity. Perhaps you or someone you know went through Hope Corps and has not yet attended an ITW. Here is their opportunity to complete their ITW and graduate simultaneously, becoming a Hope Corps Alumnus. We know that life happens and priorities shift as life takes unexpected turns. The year that Covid happened, we were unable to offer an ITW. When the world returned to a different and new normal, many of you may have been preoccupied with getting your life back on track and were unable to attend an ITW due to time or financial constraints. As a result, you may now be unsure of how or when you will have the time to participate in an ITW. If you have completed your Hope Corps coursework in any year before 2023, you are eligible to attend all Challenge Week sessions September 24-26 in Birmingham, Alabama, and graduate on Friday night. This is an excellent opportunity for you or someone you know to achieve a long-desired goal that has been on your or their heart. Don't miss this opportunity. It will not be a yearly offering, but it is available now.
