DCI also desires that churches be equipped to develop and handle development programs aimed at their surrounding communities. \u00a0We train leaders to properly oversee and administer programs, as well as to advocate for them to their flock. \u00a0In this way, DCI\u2019s leadership programs support our overall vision of helping ministries to change their communities and by doing so, to love their neighbor as we are commanded.
