Leadership Development International (LDI) represents a new vision for leadership development based on more than twenty years of experience in training and developing church leaders in Eastern Honduras.  One of the key goals of LDI is to propagate the training methodology which has been so effective over the years in planting churches through the Escuela Biblica Honduras (EBH) program.  As a result of the work of EBH over the years, more than 40 congregations have been planted throughout Eastern Honduras, and countless Christians from the States have been introduced to the work in Honduras.
 

 As the EBH program matured, the leadership of that training program has been assumed entirely by Honduran nationals, with the stateside based EBH Board of Directors taking on a much more advisory role.  Accordingly, it was determined that the best role for the stateside members of the Board was to focus on the role of financial support and propagation of the program.  It was with this changing emphasis in roles that the decision was made in 2005 to change the name of the EBH organization in the US to Leadership Development International.  LDI is excited about its new vision of a broader base and a greater impact for the work of the kingdom, not only in Honduras but throughout Latin America.

 LDI is supported by congregations and individual Christians from across the United States. Current Officers of LDI are: Norberto Otero, President; David Chacon, Director, LDI Programs; Stephen Edelhuber, Secretary; Ronnie E. Carter, Treasurer.
