The Christian Leadership Institute - Hawaii (CLI-HI) seeks to provide an opportunity for young people to develop skills for leadership and Christian Ministry. The week-long experience challenges young people to share insights and knowledge and to foster one another’s learning experiences in group settings to more firmly reinforce participants’ ownership of skills and content for use in their unique settings.
CLI-HI fosters growth in the participants’ personal and communal faith through the opportunity to take part in and to plan daily prayer and worship experiences, and through sessions particularly focused on prayer and Christian leadership.
This year's conference is being held on Oʻahu from June 24 to June 28. Below are a few photos from day one.
The journaling process of the program also encourages participants to log their reflections each day and to consider what the materials presented and their own experiences tell them about themselves, their gifts, skills and growing edges, and their faith and community identity.
