Why is the initial 10-week Ellerslie school starting in the summer instead of the fall?
The prerequisite 10-week Ellerslie School (Ellerslie Discipleship Training) will be held in the summer months of 2010 simply because those are the premier dates for the largest segment of students. Our heart here at Ellerslie is that full-time college students, missionaries, and/or working Christians would be able to participate in this 10-week training. Summer is the best time for the majority of those we are attempting to reach. Ellerslie will still be operational during the Fall and Winter/Spring semesters, offering a full-scale Biblical training program (Ellerslie Bible School) for those who have already completed the initial 10-week course of study over the summer months.
