Our Mission
The SPIRIT School of Ministry is designed to develop and equip men and women who will walk in the fullness of the life of Jesus. These true disciples will operate in Christ-like character and service, demonstrating and ushering in the Kingdom of God wherever they go.
Our Church
We believe God works in the earth through His beloved vessel, the local Church. We believe that the Universal Church is practically expressed through the local church, comprised of believers who endeavor to manifest the life of Jesus Christ as they walk together in faith. The SPIRIT School of Ministry operates under the covering and authority of Word of Life Fellowship in Mi Wuk Village, California. SPIRIT School of Ministry exists to help facilitate the mandate of the church to mature the saints, to equip believers for the work of the ministry, and to build the church into the fullness of the image of Christ.

Joshua Milbourn
Josh grew up in a Christian household, but made his personal decision to walk with the Lord at the age of 14. He recognizes that commitment to God is not a one-time decision, but a daily choice to be made as a response to the faithfulness and unfailing love of a Savior. Passionate about the generations, Josh and his wife Amber serve children and youth both in the church and the community, as well as leading other key ministries for all ages in the church. Josh recognizes Christians are challenged with making time for authentic relationship with God, and making time for authentic relationship with each other, and he makes it a priority to spend time with his wife and family, and to do whatever God asks him to do to help people grow in their relationships.
