This vision of multiplying churches in new movements is simply too comprehensive for any one mission organization or training institution. God will need to raise up entire movements of churches, denominations, and organizations to join forces for a new thrust of evangelism and church planting among America’s urban poor!
Nothing is more strategic than a church or Christian organization making the decision to multiply laborers by training a new generation of evangelists, teachers, preachers, and church planters for the city. If you have ever dreamed or thought about starting your own training center in your urban church or ministry, please, take a closer look at what we have established to make that dream come true!

Accreditation and Accredited Partnership Training TUMI is unashamedly committed to academic excellence and quality leadership education, but has chosen to be non-accredited in order to keep our resources available to any and all deserving urban leaders seeking training. We do, however, partner with some accredited liberal arts schools and seminaries where our faculty teach and offer courses.

Certificate and Diploma Programs The Urban Ministry Institute concentrates all of its educational programming on ministering effectively among city populations, and all our classes are taught in light of the needs of urban ministry. All of our courses can be applied to one or more of our Certificate or Diploma study programs: The Certificate in Christian Leadership Studies, The Certificate in Urban Theological Studies or The Ministerial Studies Diploma.
Satellite Summit Each year, TUMI National hosts an annual Site Coordinator Training and Networking conferences we call our Satellite Summit. We designed this two-day conference to encourage our site coordinators, to strengthen their vision of leadership training and church planting movements in the city, and link likeminded leaders to network and consult with one another on themes and projects of interest.
