A Partnership in Growth - Our Perspective in the Mentored Ministry Office
Education is a process of providing a climate for growth and change. The
classroom is the location for preparation and planting. The congregational setting
is the place for growth and development. It is impossible to separate these two elements
of preparation for ministry. Theory without praxis results in little more than stored
information. On the other hand practice without a sound theory is little more than
experimentation. Partnerships are not just comfortable arrangements; they are essential
elements in fulfilling the mission of the organization. Thank you for being so powerfully
linked with us in the whole process of preparing women and men for the work of ministry!
Are you interested in working with a Mentored Ministry Student?
Many of our students find their Mentored Ministry site by approaching their local pastor. However, others
seek out new opportunities and new setting in which to learn and serve. To help
students connect with local churches and ministries (and to help churches and ministries
eager to work with students) the Mentored Ministry Office provides a place for
churches to post positions for students. If you would like to have an position
at your church or ministry posted on our Opportunities Board you must fill out
both forms below. The Application to Mentor should be filled out by some who
is willing and able to mentor a student. A mentor can be a member of the clergy
or lay leader with at least five years of ministry experience. New mentors will
be asked to attend a one-time Mentor Orientation session. Please contact the
Mentored Ministry Office if you have any questions.
