Our Mission
Montana Pastors School is for disciples of Jesus who feel led by Him into pastoral ministry. Jesus said in Matthew 9:37-38:
"The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest."
We believe it is imperative that we Build the Kingdom One Disciple At A Time, and to do that we must also be willing to Build Pastors One Disciple At A Time to help us accomplish the mission.
