LAMP Open House

Dear Brother/Sister in Christ,

My name is Mark Sarracino and for those of you who do not know me, I am the Philadelphia Site Coordinator for Leadership and Ministry Preparation (LAMP) which is part of CityNet Ministries. LAMP is a training program for urban pastors/church planters and workers.The reason I am writing to you is because we will be having a LAMP Open House on Thursday, March 30th from 7:30-9:00PM at Pilgrim Church. The address is 3815 Terrace St. Philadelphia, PA 19128. Pilgrim Church is located between Ridge and Main St. in the Manayunk section of the city.We would like to invite you and/or others who are a part of your local body who have a Call from the Lord to the ministry and who desire further training in the ministry. LAMP offers either a Bachelor of Divinity or a Master of Divinity depending on previous diplomas/degrees earned. Classes meet once per week from 7-10PM and the program is six years in length. The way in which we are seeking to raise up godly leadership in the urban context is by offering quality training that is biblically grounded and practical in orientation addressing issues of the heart not just the head. For this reason, mentors are vital in the process of training our candidates. Also, since LAMP is practical in its orientation, all trainees are required to be involved in ministry and they must be recommended by their pastor.

Presently, we have 23 trainees in two groups. There are five different ethnic groups represented coming from seventeen different churches. The cost of LAMP is $1500 per year. We are seeking to keep the cost affordable and make the training available to those in the urban context. If you or anyone in your church/ministry is interested in attending the Open House, please respond at your earliest convenience so we can plan accordingly. May the Lord richly bless you as you walk with Him. You can either email me or call the number below.God bless you.Mark E. Sarracino LAMP Philadelphia Site Coordinator
