Discover Our Journey So Far
For over three decades, the Mount Zion Institute of Christian Drama has stood as a unique training ground where theatrical excellence meets evangelical purpose. Rooted in the historic city of Ile-Ife and operating under the umbrella of Mount Zion Faith Ministries, the institute exists to raise a generation of artist-disciples who can transform stages and screens into altars of revival. Before delving into the specific targets and operational guideposts of the school, it is essential to understand the spiritual and artistic heartbeat that drives every curriculum, production, and graduation. That heartbeat is captured in two foundational elements: the vision of Mount Zion Institute of Christian drama, which paints the long-term picture of what the school aspires to become in God’s grand narrative, and the mission of MZI, which outlines the daily, practical steps the institution takes to turn that aspiration into reality. Together, they form the unwavering compass for all training, worship, and outreach efforts at MZI.
