About Me

  1. The Seminary of Christ the King is a Roman Catholic seminary conducted by Westminster Abbey's monks with local diocesan clergy and some very dedicated lay volunteers. In drawing up its coat of arms, the Seminary selected from the wealth of available symbols to show its particular origin, identity, and mission. The beautiful 80-hectare campus provides residential accommodations along with recreational and community facilities of many kinds. On-Campus, there are two communities of seminarians – The Major Seminary, made up of seminarians from neighboring dioceses. The High School Seminary (Grades 8-12) comprises seminarians across Canada and the United States. The Seminary resides on the same grounds as the Abbey, within the Archdiocese of Vancouver, B.C. Since 1931, when the Seminary was opened in the Archdiocese, the Seminary has striven to form priests and religious in the image of Christ, the High Priest, and with the mind and heart of the Church. We emphasize liturgical and community formation without neglecting the other pillars of priestly formation and identity, viz. human, intellectual, and spiritual foundations. The College seminary program'sprogram'sprogram's goal is to form spiritual men who are well prepared for the ministerial priesthood and adjust to the changing needs of the Church while holding fast to the essentials. The Seminary of Christ, the King in its Arts and Theology departments, gives special attention to the character and spiritual formation of each seminarian, which is centered on the LiturgyLiturgyLiturgyLiturgy and builds upon the foundations of faith and reverence learned in the Christian family. The Seminary is convinced of the advantage of maturing within a community of like-minded seminarians and pursuing priesthood studies in a setting where the Church is loved and the Church Seasons and feasts help make real the mysteries of the faith and create a supportive environment for academic life. The Seminary provides experiences of apostolic and pastoral life that aim at actively engaging each seminarian in the diocesan life of the Church. The purpose of the High School seminary is to provide an atmosphere within which young men can grow in holiness, i.e., grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ and the Seminary community. Only through such growth are we able to discern God'sGod'sGod's will for us, our vocation. The Seminary's fundamental purpose is not merely to provide a good education or to be a safe environment, but to grow in our ability to follow Christ the Redeemer with generous souls and pure hearts. The Seminary follows the British Columbia Ministry of Education'sEducation'sEducation's program for Secondary Education. However, it provides the seminarians with a wholesome spiritual, communal, intellectual, and physical environment where a young man can avail himself of the means to mature in love for the Church and the Christian virtues and responsibilities. Our secondary aim is to prepare a young man to continue his formation toward the priesthood or religious life in the Major Seminary, should he be called. The Seminary of Christ the King was founded in 1931 by Archbishop William M. Duke of Vancouver. In 1939, with the Holy See'sSee's approval, the Archbishop entrusted the Seminary to Benedictine monks as a training center for diocesan and religious priesthood students. In 1951 the Seminary opened the Faculty of Theology. The Monastery was raised to abbatial status in 1953 under the title Westminster Abbey. In 1966, through its University Charter, the Seminary was empowered to grant the Bachelor of Arts degree and degrees in Theology. Welcome to the website of the Seminary of Christ the King. The Benedictines of Westminster Abbey have had the responsibility of guiding the discernment and formation of men for the Catholic priesthood at the Seminary of Christ the King since September 1939. Our monastic charisms of community life and daily celebration of the Eucharist and the LiturgyLiturgyLiturgyLiturgy of the Hours typical introduce our seminarians into community life and the LiturgyLiturgyLiturgyLiturgy and form them as men of communion united in the Church'sChurch'sChurch's worship of the Father. With our strong emphasis on community life and a daily rhythm shaped by the liturgical cycle, seminarians experience, often for the first time in their lives, the richness of the Catholic Faith in all its intensity and beauty. The splendor of our natural surroundings, as we are located on a hilltop above the Fraser Valley, in no small way enhances the sense of wonder that we hope to instill in our seminarians here at SCK. Committed to the four pillars of priestly formation, human, spiritual, intellectual, and pastoral, the formators and professors at the Seminary of Christ the King accompany the seminarians throughout their years of formation and assist them to integrate these facets of the whole man into their lives so that our ordained alumni are capable and zealous priests after the heart of Jesus. Our Seminary offers both a four-year program in Philosophy, a B.A. degree, and a four-year Theology program with B.Th. And M.Div. Degrees for those who meet the graduation requirements. Intellectual formation at SCK draws upon the fonts of Scripture, the Magisterium, Conciliar teaching, and St. Thomas Aquinas. We hope that our seminarians will be men who think with the Church and appreciate and appropriate into their hearts and minds that which is right, fair, and beautiful in classical and contemporary thinking, literature, and art. Human formation at SCK occurs informal settings such as lectures, conferences, and personal direction and informal ways such as part of life in the community. Students take responsibility for many household chores and share in the work of preparing and celebrating the LiturgyLiturgyLiturgyLiturgy. We welcome inquiries from Catholic men interested in discerning a possible call to the priesthood or consecrated life. We have three or four weekends each year for men to stay with us and find out something about seminary life and the joys and challenges of following Jesus'Jesus'Jesus' call to come and follow Him and be fishers of men.

  2. Jakarta Theological Seminary (JTS) is the oldest university-level theological seminary in Indonesia, located at the center of the capital of the republic. Jakarta Theological Seminary (JTS) was pioneered by Dr. Hendrik Kraemer and founded in 1934. Prof. Dr. Theodor Müller-Krüger became the first principal of the school. From the beginning, he had emphasized the need of developing a theologian in loco (local theology) in Indonesia, especially through this seminary. Since its beginning, JTS had felt it necessary to take a key role in developing theological thought that will enable the church to respond to the continually changing situations it faces while, on the other hand, to be able to develop theological thought that guides Indonesia’s journey, by the hopes of all people. Until today, we are continuing this tradition of developing theologia in loco (theology in context). The school was supported by several churches in existence at that time, among others the Protestant Church in Indonesia (De Protestantse Kerk in Nederlands- Indié) and the Batak Protestant Christian Church (Huria Kristen Batak Protestant). Eventually, the number of supporting churches increased to sixteen, plus the Communion of the Churches in Indonesia (CCI or PGI) representing all members besides the 14 churches supporting the seminary directly. Lecturers and students came from many different denominations and thus the seedbed of the ecumenical movement in Indonesia was planted. Our students come from approximately 30 church synods. Our master’s and doctoral programs enjoy the trust of many theological schools for training and preparing their future lecturers or improving the quality of those who are already in service. Through its graduate studies programs as well as through its participation in the South East Asia Graduate School of Theology (SEAGST), until 2012, JTS has produced around 200 masters and 50 doctors of theology. Vision to make JTS the best center for theological education in Indonesia, where theology is discussed and studied together not only in the classroom but also with people at the grassroots level, to enable members of both communities to live out their faith in context.
  3. Wyoming Seminary, also known as "Sem," is an independent day and boarding school located within a few hours of New York, Philadelphia, and Baltimore. We are close to recreational areas for skiing, hiking, and water sports, within minutes of world-class dining, have access to sporting events, major musical acts, and the amenities of a more populous downtown area. Sem has two campuses: the Lower School in Forty Fort (toddler through grade and the Upper School in Kingston (grade nine through postgraduate). Sixty percent of faculty live on campus, and seventy-nine percent hold advanced degrees. In the classroom, more than 150 courses are offered, and many electives are unique to Sem. A cutting-edge creative arts facility is the home to our vibrant arts program, and Sem has three new state-of-the-art sports facilities for our athletic program. Additionally, students choose from over 30 clubs and activities to suit nearly every interest. Sem is a microcosm of the national and global community. Every year, we are home to more than 100 international students from over 20 countries. This diversity enables students to develop a global perspective that will be essential for success in the future and creates friendships that last a lifetime. Wyoming Seminary's school motto, "Verum, Pulchrum, Bonum," not only served as the guiding spirit of Wyoming Seminary in 1844 but remains the words by which we live today. The values expressed in Sem's motto distinguish us. They express the Sem difference: we dare to teach students the truth that character matters, we emphasize the importance of friendships with others who look and think differently. We stand for something, and we are proud of it. As an independent college preparatory school, Wyoming Seminary seeks to create active learners, responsible citizens, community leaders, and ethical individuals ready to take their place in the global community of the 21st century. True to our traditions and values, Wyoming Seminary is committed to supporting promising students from varied backgrounds. Our curriculum emphasizes competition and collaboration, critical thinking and creativity, self-respect, and respect for others. We challenge our students to discover their talents and passions by offering an integrated program rich in artistic, athletic, and extracurricular opportunities that complement the school's core commitment to academic excellence, personal integrity, spiritual growth, and community service. It is unquestionably right, beautiful, and sound that the world is made up of diverse people. Wyoming Seminary strives to build a learning environment that reflects the disparate cultures, religions, languages, backgrounds, identities, and perspectives of our world. To that end, our school seeks to encourage students' application and the hiring of faculty, staff, and administrators who represent diversity. Sustaining and nurturing such a community is an ongoing process, and we will continue to foster the respect, empathy, and curiosity that allow it to flourish. We proudly encourage students to seek out and embrace what makes them unique. Perhaps this results from our confident history as one of America's oldest continuously coeducational boarding schools, founded in 1844 at a time when schools with high moral aspirations were called "seminaries." Or it could result from our location, nestled in northeast Pennsylvania's beautiful Wyoming valley, known as "the valley with a heart," where a safe, family-oriented environment supports self-discovery. Wyoming Seminary's picturesque setting includes buildings on the National Register of Historic places as well as state of the art 600-seat Kirby Center for the Creative Arts, which recently hosted the 2015 Pulitzer Prize-winning oratorio, "Anthracite Fields." Our students thrive in the small city environments of Kingston and Wilkes-Barre, only two hours from New York City and Philadelphia. At Sem, we appreciate the beauty of compelling individuals with original ideas. Our outstanding faculty delivers an exciting lineup of classes, including an impressive array of creative electives that support independent thought. Here you will find that one of the lead actors in the school musical is also President of the "Nerdvana" club. One of our tops, nationally ranked wrestlers, also have expressed a passionate interest in pottery. After graduation, Sem graduates span the globe. Our international alumni base includes courageous, independent thinkers: a former U.S. Poet Laureate, professionals who have worked in both the Reagan and Clinton White Houses, and American developmental psychologist Howard Gardner, creator of the theory of multiple intelligences.

  4. Holy Apostles College & Seminary is a dynamic Catholic liberal arts college and seminary devoted to forming future priests and Catholic community leaders. The goal of the Holy Apostles is to cultivate Catholic leaders for evangelization. We welcome and serve seminarians, lay students, as well as religious sisters. Holy Apostles offers a microcosm of the Church where lay people study alongside seminarians and religious to support and learn from one another. The mission of Holy Apostles College & Seminary is to cultivate lay, consecrated, and ordained Catholic leaders for evangelization. In addition to formal education, Holy Apostles has five specific goals in mind to encourage the full spiritual, emotional, and psychological development of each of its students. Holy Apostles' goal is for students, faculty, and staff to be united in Christ in a culturally diverse atmosphere, fostering the integral formation of the person, affective maturation, and the capacity for healthy, holy, and happy relationships. We focus on forming the total person – humanly, intellectually, and spiritually, in a unique environment that is a universal Church's microcosm. Students from 5 continents are represented in an atmosphere that promotes the person's dignity, their search for the truth, growth in the virtues, and acquiring knowledge for their service to others. A simple but profound illustration is a custom at Holy Apostles: a dean picks up the tray of students after lunch and clears the table, a small act promoting loving, humble, joyful service. Here, the goals enshrined by most colleges of individual autonomy and personal freedom to fulfill one's desires are reconciled with the social nature of the person and the common good – a philosophy lived out in a familial community. The collegial environment is one of the most unique that any student could experience anywhere. We are a small, close-knit, culturally diverse student body in a family environment representing five continents and made up of priests, seminarians, religious sisters, and lay students. And while we are a Catholic college, our hearts and doors are open to all faith traditions and beliefs where everyone feels valued and welcome. The environment gives rise to a maturation process of intellectual, spiritual, and human formation, unlike anything else we know of that has the student's success as its goal. Whether a student is here for two or three years or elects to graduate from Holy Apostles, the student who has studied at Holy Apostles has a significant advantage in their development. Our mission is evangelization. For 60 years, we have focused on: "Cultivating Catholic Leaders for Evangelization," and we have experience doing that like none other, educating seminarians internationally, including some of the most repressive regimes in the world. That yeast leavens the dough throughout the college, both on-campus and online. The (M. Div.) Master of Divinity is a professional degree designed for men preparing to be ordained to the Catholic Priesthood or permanent Diaconate. Successful completion of the Master of Divinity program attests to the recipient's competency for exercising priestly ministry gained from a thorough grounding in Sacred Scripture, Dogmatic and Moral Theology, Spiritual and Pastoral Theology, Canon Law, Liturgy, Homiletics, and Church History. It is a particular aim of the Holy Apostles Seminary to provide priestly education in the Catholic spirit. This means that Catholic values inform all our instruction and formation work. These same values are reflected in the concern to provide personal and spiritual formation by focusing on integrating the Gospel ideals into daily life. The life of the seminary is centered on the Eucharist, mostly daily Mass. It is nourished by the Liturgy of the Hours and times of personal prayer. The traditions of seminary life here encourage Eucharistic worship, frequent reception of the Sacrament of Reconciliation, devotion to Mary, love for the Church, respect for human life, concern for the poor, and a commitment to a priestly life of sacrifice and service. Holy Apostles welcomes students of all ages and backgrounds. Students range from the traditional high school graduate to the seasoned retiree seeking more in-depth knowledge of their faith. Our objective is to prepare college seminarians to study theology and law students for further studies and, most significantly, for life. While challenging, academics are student-centered and designed to produce individuals who are well educated in mind, body, and soul. Our Online Campus allows flexibility for busy students, especially those who are working or have families. Our online courses are hosted through an online forum that allows for discussion, collaboration, and community setting. Holy Apostles sits beautifully overlooking the Connecticut River valley in the historic town of Cromwell, Connecticut. Holy Apostles offers the convenience of being a short commute to Hartford and New Haven. Holy Apostle is a beautiful blend of quiet for reflection and study and the appeal of closeness to large cities and attractions. At $320 per credit hour, our tuition rates are 72% lower than the average private liberal arts college, because we believe that a debt-free graduate is a gift to the Church and society at large.
  5. Being the third fastest-growing city in the country, it is no wonder Ankeny is a great place to live and study. Housing is affordable, and job opportunities are plentiful. Ankeny, home to more than 50,000 people, is a fast-growing suburb of Des Moines. All your shopping and dining needs, as well as state parks, bike trails, and a family YMCA, are within a short drive. Being a student at FBTS also means you share a campus with Faith Baptist Bible College. This gives you the benefits of guest speakers, events, entertainment, and resources available on campus. Faith Baptist Theological Seminary provides an advanced Biblical, theological, and ministerial education at the graduate level to prepare Bible expositors to serve effectively in Christian ministry through leadership positions within Baptist fundamentalism. We know you have many choices when choosing a seminary to train for ministry, so why choose Faith? Our programs in Theology, Old and New Testament, and Practical Theology will challenge you not only to grow in your understanding of the Bible through in-depth research but also to strengthen you in your walk with God. Our seminary faculty is highly trained to ensure you the best education. Our graduates have described our faculty as being "top-notch" and giving "sound theological teaching." With our flexible online and module formats, you can tailor a program to fit your schedule's needs. Classes are offered online, in one-week modules, and residence formats. We desire to make training affordable for everyone God has called into ministry. In addition to having competitive tuition rates, multiple internal and external financial aid sources are available to our students. Are you looking for strong academics with an exceptional faculty? Why not spend time in an environment that encourages you to grow spiritually while building lasting friendships? Why wouldn't you want to invest a year or more of your life for eternity's sake? Find out why you belong at Faith and why Faith is "For life and For ministry." Academics are important. That is why we are accredited both nationally and regionally to ensure you receive a high education standard. Not only are our professors highly qualified, but they also take a personal interest in your life outside the classroom. Our academic program will challenge you to serve Christ to your full potential. Faith is more than just a college. We seek to train you for success in life and ministry. With opportunities to disciple others and be disciplined, your personal growth will thrive from the campus's residence halls and classrooms. The relationships made at Faith will last a lifetime. You may be an engineer or a doctor at 8 a.m.–5 p.m. during the workweek, but you'll always be a Christian 24/7. Why not spend this crucial time in your life investing in an education that will last for an eternity? You will never regret studying the Bible, and Faith will equip you with the foundation you need to take the Word to the World. In 1893 at the Chicago World's Fair, William H. Jordan heard D. L. Moody speak about the importance of training Christian workers for the ministry. Deeply impressed by Moody's vision, Jordan developed a burden to see schools established to carry on that vision. In 1921, he became pastor of Third Presbyterian Church in Omaha, Nebraska. The spark that D. L. Moody had ignited in Jordan produced a small, nondenominational Bible school known as the Omaha Bible Institute (OBI). Classes began in the summer of 1921 and continued for many years with Dr. Jordan as President of the school. During the mid-1940s, the trustees wondered whether the school should continue. One of the part-time faculty members was Dr. John L. Patten, pastor of Grace Baptist Church in Omaha, Nebraska. Dr. Patten shared Dr. Jordan's vision for the school and was firmly convinced that its need was still valid. So he volunteered to step into the place of leadership. In the mid-1950s, the institution aggressively sought Baptists' approval and support and changed the name to Omaha Baptist Bible Institute (OBBI). On June 22, 1956, the Council of Fourteen of the General Association of Regular Baptist Churches voted to approve OBBI as an independent, fundamental Baptist educational institution. The courses were broadened, and curricula expanded to establish the school on the collegiate level. The name was changed again in 1960 to Omaha Baptist Bible College (OBBC) to reflect this emphasis. Over the next few years, David Nettleton raised money and built a new campus in Ankeny. In 1969 he walked from Omaha to Ankeny to celebrate the sale of the Omaha campus and raise money for a classroom building. The move was accomplished during the summer of 1967, and Faith Baptist Bible College opened for classes that October.
  6. Tyndale University College & Seminary was founded in 1894 in Toronto, Ontario. Legislated by the Government of Ontario, Tyndale University College is a Christian university with a growing number of undergraduate programs, offering a wide range of academic disciplines. Tyndale Seminary is Canada's largest graduate school of theology, offering degrees at the master's and doctoral levels. Tyndale's community, representing 60 ethnic backgrounds and 40 different denominations, inspires students to think analytically, serve faithfully, and live passionately. Welcome to Tyndale University College & Seminary. We are on an exciting adventure in our mission to provide quality post-graduate education and graduate theological and ministerial training. Tyndale has over 120 years of history preparing people for their future professions, from teaching and business to pastoral work. Tyndale continues to do this today and has expanded upon it to prepare people for their future. Tyndale offers students a university education that prepares them to work in several different professions or further graduate studies within a context that affirms a community of faith. Tyndale scores are high in a poll measuring students' satisfaction with their university education. We offer Bachelor of Arts degrees in Business, Psychology, Biblical Studies, English, History, Philosophy, and more, as well as a Bachelor of Education. Tyndale Seminary is the largest graduate school of theology in Canada. We have worked diligently to provide ease of access for students who wish to study part-time or full-time. There are multiple ways in which you can study and train. The multicultural nature of our student body makes learning exciting and challenging. You will study with professors deeply rooted in taking their subjects and placing them in a real context. This is not just a theory for them; they have had to put it into practice. Neither do we think that ministry only happens professionally through pastoral ministry. The call to faithful living is for all. Consequently, we believe in shaping and transforming people of faith to think theologically, deepen their spiritual lives, and navigate the challenges of the 21st-century world. In 2007, we acquired the Morrow Park facilities on Bayview Avenue. The Bachelor of Education program, Doctor of Ministry program, the Development office, the Alumni office, and the Tyndale Association of Spiritual Directors moved to the Bayview campus in 2009. The rest of the university and seminary joined them in Spring 2015, completing the historic move. The new campus provides 56 acres of green space and property resources to expand our course offerings and accommodate our growth. Tyndale University College & Seminary is a Christian institution of higher education standing in the Protestant Evangelical tradition. With all Christians East and West, North and South, we affirm the historic Apostles' and Nicene creeds, and we affirm our spiritual kinship with all who seek to exalt and serve the Lord Jesus Christ. We are also rooted in the Protestant Reformation with its conviction concerning the Lordship of Jesus Christ and the Scripture's normative authority. In the Evangelical awakenings tradition, we proclaim the message of personal faith in the crucified Christ and a transformed life through the Spirit. Born out of the world missionary movement of the 19th century, we continue to serve the global Church in all its cultural diversity. We embrace the biblical call to seek justice and peace and serve the poor, the vulnerable, and the oppressed. Tyndale offers a distinct undergraduate Christian university experience where students develop the skills they need to think analytically and respond to today's issues and tomorrow. Smaller classes nurture a strong sense of community and dialogue between students and professors. The university offers Bachelor's degrees and honors degrees in Arts (BA), Religious Education (BRE), a Certificate in Christian Studies and a post-undergraduate Bachelor's degree in Education (BEd). These degrees prepare graduates for dynamic careers, professional programs, graduate programs in other universities, and life. The Tyndale undergraduate university experience is known for its high-quality academics that are interwoven with faith. It is a community of students and faculty that challenges each other to live authentically, follow Christ, and actively engage their culture. Tyndale Seminary, long recognized for its innovation and creativity, prepares people to lead and live from the core of a vibrant Christian faith in a postmodern, pluralistic and multicultural society. The seminary's graduate degrees provide a comprehensive theological foundation and offer one of the largest selections of specializations in theological education in North America. Through academic rigor, practical application, and dialogue, Tyndale students develop the skills needed to examine their beliefs, work through issues, and engage their culture with the gospel. Seminary courses have been designed to be flexible programs that can be taken online and in modular, one-week intensives and traditional daytime and evening formats. Tyndale Seminary offers degrees in Doctor of Ministry (DMin), Master of Divinity (MDiv), Master of Theological Studies (MTS), Master of Theology (ThM), and Graduate Diploma programs.

  7. Baptist Bible College is an institution of biblical higher education that exists to provide a Christ-centered curriculum that fosters a biblical worldview, empowering students to engage and impact their global society. For its first 36 years, the College used the facilities of First Baptist Church in Johnson City. As the student body grew from the first enrollment of 40 students, the College gradually purchased and built buildings of its own. In the 1960s, the need for a new campus became evident.

  8. Tyndale University College & Seminary was founded in 1894 in Toronto, Ontario. Legislated by the Government of Ontario, Tyndale University College is a Christian university with a growing number of undergraduate programs, offering a wide range of academic disciplines. Tyndale Seminary is Canada's largest graduate school of theology, offering degrees at the master's and doctoral levels. Tyndale's community, representing 60 ethnic backgrounds and 40 different denominations, inspires students to think analytically, serve faithfully, and live passionately. Welcome to Tyndale University College & Seminary. We are on an exciting adventure in our mission to provide quality post-graduate education and graduate theological and ministerial training. Tyndale has over 120 years of history preparing people for their future professions, from teaching and business to pastoral work. Tyndale continues to do this today and has expanded upon it to prepare people for their future. Tyndale offers students a university education that prepares them to work in several different professions or further graduate studies within a context that affirms a community of faith. Tyndale scores are high in a poll measuring students' satisfaction with their university education. We offer Bachelor of Arts degrees in Business, Psychology, Biblical Studies, English, History, Philosophy, and more, as well as a Bachelor of Education. Tyndale Seminary is the largest graduate school of theology in Canada. We have worked diligently to provide ease of access for students who wish to study part-time or full-time. There are multiple ways in which you can study and train. The multicultural nature of our student body makes learning exciting and challenging. You will study with professors deeply rooted in taking their subjects and placing them in a real context. This is not just a theory for them; they have had to put it into practice. Neither do we think that ministry only happens professionally through pastoral ministry. The call to faithful living is for all. Consequently, we believe in shaping and transforming people of faith to think theologically, deepen their spiritual lives, and navigate the challenges of the 21st-century world. In 2007, we acquired the Morrow Park facilities on Bayview Avenue. The Bachelor of Education program, Doctor of Ministry program, the Development office, the Alumni office, and the Tyndale Association of Spiritual Directors moved to the Bayview campus in 2009. The rest of the university and seminary joined them in Spring 2015, completing the historic move. The new campus provides 56 acres of green space and property resources to expand our course offerings and accommodate our growth. Tyndale University College & Seminary is a Christian institution of higher education standing in the Protestant Evangelical tradition. With all Christians East and West, North and South, we affirm the historic Apostles' and Nicene creeds, and we affirm our spiritual kinship with all who seek to exalt and serve the Lord Jesus Christ. We are also rooted in the Protestant Reformation with its conviction concerning the Lordship of Jesus Christ and the Scripture's normative authority. In the Evangelical awakenings tradition, we proclaim the message of personal faith in the crucified Christ and a transformed life through the Spirit. Born out of the world missionary movement of the 19th century, we continue to serve the global Church in all its cultural diversity. We embrace the biblical call to seek justice and peace and serve the poor, the vulnerable, and the oppressed. Tyndale offers a distinct undergraduate Christian university experience where students develop the skills they need to think analytically and respond to today's issues and tomorrow. Smaller classes nurture a strong sense of community and dialogue between students and professors. The university offers Bachelor's degrees and honors degrees in Arts (BA), Religious Education (BRE), a Certificate in Christian Studies and a post-undergraduate Bachelor's degree in Education (BEd). These degrees prepare graduates for dynamic careers, professional programs, graduate programs in other universities, and life. The Tyndale undergraduate university experience is known for its high-quality academics that are interwoven with faith. It is a community of students and faculty that challenges each other to live authentically, follow Christ, and actively engage their culture. Tyndale Seminary, long recognized for its innovation and creativity, prepares people to lead and live from the core of a vibrant Christian faith in a postmodern, pluralistic and multicultural society. The seminary's graduate degrees provide a comprehensive theological foundation and offer one of the largest selections of specializations in theological education in North America. Through academic rigor, practical application, and dialogue, Tyndale students develop the skills needed to examine their beliefs, work through issues, and engage their culture with the gospel. Seminary courses have been designed to be flexible programs that can be taken online and in modular, one-week intensives and traditional daytime and evening formats. Tyndale Seminary offers degrees in Doctor of Ministry (DMin), Master of Divinity (MDiv), Master of Theological Studies (MTS), Master of Theology (ThM), and Graduate Diploma programs.
  9. Tokyo Union Theological Seminary (TUTS) has deep roots and a rich tradition. Its story reaches back to the earliest beginnings of the Protestant church movement in Japan. Protestant theological education began in Japan among the earliest converts. In 1872, the first theological class was held in Yokohama by Samuel R. Brown, a missionary of the Reformed Church in America (RCA). The following year, Henry Stout, also of the RCA, opened a theological training center in Nagasaki. Soon afterward, American Presbyterian missionaries Thompson, Carrothers, and Hepburn and missionaries of the United Presbyterian Church of Scotland, started their work in similar ways in Yokohama and Tokyo. TUTS continues to cherish its relationships with the churches of the Reformed and Methodist traditions. At the same time, it continues to be inspired by the spirit and theological convictions of Masahisa Uemura. It is significantly influenced by his emphasis on the formation of healthy, responsible churches. Academically, TUTS is widely respected as a leading theological institution in Japan. At the same time, it is evangelical and dedicated to preparing men and women for the challenging task of Christian ministry in Japan and around the world. TUTS is an accredited university and graduate school of theology. A few students enroll directly after graduating from high school and begin a four-year college course leading to a Bachelor of Divinity degree. Most continue for an additional two years to gain the equivalent of a Master of Divinity degree. Most new students, however, have already completed a four-year college degree program. These students study for two years to achieve an undergraduate degree in theology and study for additional two years to obtain the equivalent of a Master of Divinity degree. Also, TUTS offers a program leading to a doctoral degree in Biblical Studies or Systematic Theology. The seminary campus is located in Mitaka, about 20 kilometers west of downtown Tokyo. The 1.6-hectare campus is adjacent to International Christian University and Japan Lutheran College & Seminary, with which meaningful cooperative relationships are maintained. In the shape of a cross, the main seminary building contains a chapel, classrooms, faculty offices, meeting rooms, and administrative offices. The library building provides additional classrooms, faculty offices, missiological institutes, a pastoral care center, and a large meeting room. The dormitory and faculty housing are on campus. The seminary has one of the largest theological libraries in Asia: approximately 100,000 volumes, mostly Japanese, German, and English. TUTS stresses both spiritual and intellectual disciplines and emphasizes both academic and practical training. The faculty and students lead the daily chapel services, and nearly all participate in regularly scheduled retreats. They also serve actively in local churches. The TUTS curriculum develops a foundation for theological study by emphasizing the liberal arts and reading knowledge of English and German. Upon this base is built a framework of biblical studies, including Greek and Hebrew, of church history, systematic theology, and practical theology. At the master's degree level, academic work culminates in writing a thesis in either the biblical field or the systematic field. Practical training is also emphasized. Theory and practice of pastoral work, preaching, worship, counseling, Christian education, and church administration prepare students for entering the church ministry. A supervised field education program provides direction and oversight for both regular participation and service in local churches throughout the seminary career and summer field education.
  10. Holy Apostles College & Seminary is a dynamic Catholic liberal arts college and seminary devoted to forming future priests and Catholic community leaders. The goal of the Holy Apostles is to cultivate Catholic leaders for evangelization. We welcome and serve seminarians, lay students, as well as religious sisters. Holy Apostles offers a microcosm of the Church where lay people study alongside seminarians and religious to support and learn from one another. The mission of Holy Apostles College & Seminary is to cultivate lay, consecrated, and ordained Catholic leaders for evangelization. In addition to formal education, Holy Apostles has five specific goals in mind to encourage the full spiritual, emotional, and psychological development of each of its students. Holy Apostles' goal is for students, faculty, and staff to be united in Christ in a culturally diverse atmosphere, fostering the integral formation of the person, affective maturation, and the capacity for healthy, holy, and happy relationships. We focus on forming the total person – humanly, intellectually, and spiritually, in a unique environment that is a universal Church's microcosm. Students from 5 continents are represented in an atmosphere that promotes the person's dignity, their search for the truth, growth in the virtues, and acquiring knowledge for their service to others. A simple but profound illustration is a custom at Holy Apostles: a dean picks up the tray of students after lunch and clears the table, a small act promoting loving, humble, joyful service. Here, the goals enshrined by most colleges of individual autonomy and personal freedom to fulfill one's desires are reconciled with the social nature of the person and the common good – a philosophy lived out in a familial community. The collegial environment is one of the most unique that any student could experience anywhere. We are a small, close-knit, culturally diverse student body in a family environment representing five continents and made up of priests, seminarians, religious sisters, and lay students. And while we are a Catholic college, our hearts and doors are open to all faith traditions and beliefs where everyone feels valued and welcome. The environment gives rise to a maturation process of intellectual, spiritual, and human formation, unlike anything else we know of that has the student's success as its goal. Whether a student is here for two or three years or elects to graduate from Holy Apostles, the student who has studied at Holy Apostles has a significant advantage in their development. Our mission is evangelization. For 60 years, we have focused on: "Cultivating Catholic Leaders for Evangelization," and we have experience doing that like none other, educating seminarians internationally, including some of the most repressive regimes in the world. That yeast leavens the dough throughout the college, both on-campus and online. The (M. Div.) Master of Divinity is a professional degree designed for men preparing to be ordained to the Catholic Priesthood or permanent Diaconate. Successful completion of the Master of Divinity program attests to the recipient's competency for exercising priestly ministry gained from a thorough grounding in Sacred Scripture, Dogmatic and Moral Theology, Spiritual and Pastoral Theology, Canon Law, Liturgy, Homiletics, and Church History. It is a particular aim of the Holy Apostles Seminary to provide priestly education in the Catholic spirit. This means that Catholic values inform all our instruction and formation work. These same values are reflected in the concern to provide personal and spiritual formation by focusing on integrating the Gospel ideals into daily life. The life of the seminary is centered on the Eucharist, mostly daily Mass. It is nourished by the Liturgy of the Hours and times of personal prayer. The traditions of seminary life here encourage Eucharistic worship, frequent reception of the Sacrament of Reconciliation, devotion to Mary, love for the Church, respect for human life, concern for the poor, and a commitment to a priestly life of sacrifice and service. Holy Apostles welcomes students of all ages and backgrounds. Students range from the traditional high school graduate to the seasoned retiree seeking more in-depth knowledge of their faith. Our objective is to prepare college seminarians to study theology and law students for further studies and, most significantly, for life. While challenging, academics are student-centered and designed to produce individuals who are well educated in mind, body, and soul. Our Online Campus allows flexibility for busy students, especially those who are working or have families. Our online courses are hosted through an online forum that allows for discussion, collaboration, and community setting. Holy Apostles sits beautifully overlooking the Connecticut River valley in the historic town of Cromwell, Connecticut. Holy Apostles offers the convenience of being a short commute to Hartford and New Haven. Holy Apostle is a beautiful blend of quiet for reflection and study and the appeal of closeness to large cities and attractions. At $320 per credit hour, our tuition rates are 72% lower than the average private liberal arts college, because we believe that a debt-free graduate is a gift to the Church and society at large.

  11. In 1901, when the people were crying out "we have nowhere to go" as the nation was losing sovereignty and hope, God made way for Pyeongyang Theological Seminary, which grew into the Presbyterian University Theological Seminary. Now, at the beginning of the twenty-first century, at this time of yet another crisis, we deeply desire to answer God's calling and to be used as His instrument once again. Missionary Moffett began teaching Chong-Sub Kim and Ki-Chang Pang at his home in Pyongyang in 1901. And in 1903, the Presbyterian Council decided to start theological education in Korea officially. Missionaries from each Presbyterian synod went to Pyongyang to teach a course designed to give three months of study and nine months of ministry in five years. In June of 1907, the first class of seven students graduated from the theological course, and among them were the first ordained pastors of Korea: Sun-Joo Kil, Suk-jin Han, and Ki-Pung Lee. The purpose of Presbyterian University and Theological Seminary, a theological educational institution of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church of Korea, under the aegis of the Department of Education of the Republic of Korea, is to provide higher education through nurturing leaders and ministers of the church in the foundation of biblical theology, in adherence to the confessions of faith and Constitution of the Presbyterian Church. To proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ and to embody the Kingdom of God. To cultivate leaders and ministers who will serve the church, the society, and the nation. Training for piety, Pursuing academic excellence, Practising the Gospel. We have a dream to see the kingdom of God realized here and now through the proclamation of the gospel. For that dream, we will devote ourselves to training piety, cultivating scholarship, and practicing the gospel to equip the PUTS community as workers of the kingdom of God and edify the church as a herald of the kingdom of God. Above all, we are determined to love the church, this nation, and the world in faith, truth, and deed. We, the PUTS community, cordially invite you to this exciting and glorious call to work for the kingdom of God.
  12. Buffalo Seminary is an independent day and boarding high school for college-bound girls. Founded in 1851, SEM is located in the historic Elmwood Village neighborhood of Buffalo, New York, and is registered on the National Register of Historic Places. Our five student and faculty residences are renovated historic homes adjacent to our school building. At SEM, girls from diverse backgrounds – united in their ambition for an outstanding and challenging education – can find a comprehensive program that prepares them well for college and lifelong endeavors. We believe in standards but not standardization. Because we are an independent high school, SEM is exempt from state testing requirements. Instead, seated at Harkness tables or in labs, students have honors and AP classes and explore diverse electives, including astronomy, computer science, journalism, and women's literature. SEM students are taught and encouraged to stretch beyond themselves. With 33 student-run clubs, 17 athletic teams, and a community service board, girls are in charge. Girls discover meaningful connections to the SEM and broader communities, learn resilience, are relied upon. In short, they lead. SEM fosters a multicultural, global perspective. Our small classes facilitate expression, understanding, and tolerance. Due to our small size, girls regularly sign-up for sports they have never played (i.e., fencing, field hockey), activities they have never tried (i.e., chess, Model UN), and language trips. We can take advantage of our city and our region - we go to museums and the theater, on architectural field trips, and ski nights. While technology and innovative thinking are woven through our curriculum, traditions are the underlying material. From all daily all-school Morning Meeting and singing our Alma Mater, to our Academic & Social Honor Code, to the spirited fun of our 100-year-old Hornet/Jacket competitions, SEM has long been committed to creating a respectful and dynamic community for both students and faculty. SEM will be a leader in secondary education for girls – a school distinguished by the quality of its faculty and innovative academic program, its tradition of leadership and character development, and its supportive, inclusive environment that helps each young woman grow and flourish in her way. The extraordinary diversity of talent, experiences, and backgrounds in the SEM community will ensure that each of its graduates finds her voice, becomes an active and engaged citizen confident in her abilities, resilient in her outlook, and respectful of the world around her. Buffalo Seminary graduates are prepared to make their way in a rapidly changing world. In our small classes, guided by dedicated faculty, our students expand their knowledge, skills, and capability. Around our Harkness Tables, they develop the confidence to think about, write, debate their point of view, and listen and respond to their peers' perspective. They are not afraid to address the entire school at the morning meeting. They lead clubs and organizations they sing and act, and they compete on the sports fields and learn how to win and accept losses graciously. SEM students are involved - they give back to their communities and forge authentic and lasting connections to people and organizations and their missions. Research confirms that girls experience success and gain confidence that lasts a lifetime when they attend an all-girl school. Our alumnae speak fondly of the talented teachers who encouraged them and of the great friends they made during their time at SEM, who remain a part of their lives. SEM graduates can be found throughout the United States and worldwide, who are leaders, scholars, and committed to serving the communities where they live. Our academic program prepares every girl not just for the rigors of college but also for the sheer joy of lifelong intellectual curiosity. SEM's interdisciplinary curriculum emphasizes academic scholarship, service to the community, leadership skills, physical and emotional well-being, creative expression, and personal integrity. At SEM, our students learn how to approach a complicated academic subject or a new activity with vigor and confidence. They are not afraid to take risks or to challenge themselves to excel. Throughout her years at SEM, each student is expected to develop core competencies in all five major disciplines, giving her a solid foundation in the humanities, the sciences, and the arts. She is also encouraged to pursue Honors and Advanced Placement courses in areas of particular strength. Advanced electives during junior and senior years cover a range of topics, and independent study opportunities can be arranged for self-motivated scholars. Our dynamic and knowledgeable faculty will always be the cornerstone of superior education at SEM. Our small and selective nature ensures the faculty's ability to mentor students and personally commit to a girl's success. Thanks to experienced teachers who teach by allowing students to learn from each other as much as they learn from them, each SEM student benefits from opportunities to express her perspective. SEM's Harkness tables and the seminar-style discussions foster ensure every student's voice is expressed and heard. View full school
  13. Being the third fastest-growing city in the country, it is no wonder Ankeny is a great place to live and study. Housing is affordable, and job opportunities are plentiful. Ankeny, home to more than 50,000 people, is a fast-growing suburb of Des Moines. All your shopping and dining needs, as well as state parks, bike trails, and a family YMCA, are within a short drive. Being a student at FBTS also means you share a campus with Faith Baptist Bible College. This gives you the benefits of guest speakers, events, entertainment, and resources available on campus. Faith Baptist Theological Seminary provides an advanced Biblical, theological, and ministerial education at the graduate level to prepare Bible expositors to serve effectively in Christian ministry through leadership positions within Baptist fundamentalism. We know you have many choices when choosing a seminary to train for ministry, so why choose Faith? Our programs in Theology, Old and New Testament, and Practical Theology will challenge you not only to grow in your understanding of the Bible through in-depth research but also to strengthen you in your walk with God. Our seminary faculty is highly trained to ensure you the best education. Our graduates have described our faculty as being "top-notch" and giving "sound theological teaching." With our flexible online and module formats, you can tailor a program to fit your schedule's needs. Classes are offered online, in one-week modules, and residence formats. We desire to make training affordable for everyone God has called into ministry. In addition to having competitive tuition rates, multiple internal and external financial aid sources are available to our students. Are you looking for strong academics with an exceptional faculty? Why not spend time in an environment that encourages you to grow spiritually while building lasting friendships? Why wouldn't you want to invest a year or more of your life for eternity's sake? Find out why you belong at Faith and why Faith is "For life and For ministry." Academics are important. That is why we are accredited both nationally and regionally to ensure you receive a high education standard. Not only are our professors highly qualified, but they also take a personal interest in your life outside the classroom. Our academic program will challenge you to serve Christ to your full potential. Faith is more than just a college. We seek to train you for success in life and ministry. With opportunities to disciple others and be disciplined, your personal growth will thrive from the campus's residence halls and classrooms. The relationships made at Faith will last a lifetime. You may be an engineer or a doctor at 8 a.m.–5 p.m. during the workweek, but you'll always be a Christian 24/7. Why not spend this crucial time in your life investing in an education that will last for an eternity? You will never regret studying the Bible, and Faith will equip you with the foundation you need to take the Word to the World. In 1893 at the Chicago World's Fair, William H. Jordan heard D. L. Moody speak about the importance of training Christian workers for the ministry. Deeply impressed by Moody's vision, Jordan developed a burden to see schools established to carry on that vision. In 1921, he became pastor of Third Presbyterian Church in Omaha, Nebraska. The spark that D. L. Moody had ignited in Jordan produced a small, nondenominational Bible school known as the Omaha Bible Institute (OBI). Classes began in the summer of 1921 and continued for many years with Dr. Jordan as President of the school. During the mid-1940s, the trustees wondered whether the school should continue. One of the part-time faculty members was Dr. John L. Patten, pastor of Grace Baptist Church in Omaha, Nebraska. Dr. Patten shared Dr. Jordan's vision for the school and was firmly convinced that its need was still valid. So he volunteered to step into the place of leadership. In the mid-1950s, the institution aggressively sought Baptists' approval and support and changed the name to Omaha Baptist Bible Institute (OBBI). On June 22, 1956, the Council of Fourteen of the General Association of Regular Baptist Churches voted to approve OBBI as an independent, fundamental Baptist educational institution. The courses were broadened, and curricula expanded to establish the school on the collegiate level. The name was changed again in 1960 to Omaha Baptist Bible College (OBBC) to reflect this emphasis. Over the next few years, David Nettleton raised money and built a new campus in Ankeny. In 1969 he walked from Omaha to Ankeny to celebrate the sale of the Omaha campus and raise money for a classroom building. The move was accomplished during the summer of 1967, and Faith Baptist Bible College opened for classes that October. View full university
  14. Friends Seminary educates students from kindergarten through twelfth grade, adhering to the Religious Society of Friends' values. We strive to build a diverse school where students exercise their curiosity and imagination as they develop as scholars, artists, and athletes. In a community that cultivates the practices of keen observation, unhurried reflection, critical thinking, and coherent expression, we listen for the single voice as we seek unity. The disciplines of silence, study, and service provide the matrix for growth: silence opens us to change study helps us know the world service challenges us to put our values into practice. At Friends Seminary, education is rooted in the Quaker belief in the Inner Light – that of God in every person. Guided by the testimonies of integrity, peace, equality, and simplicity, we prepare students to engage in the world that is and to help bring about a world that ought to be. Service is integral to Friends Seminary's educational mission, along with the disciplines of study and silence. Our Community Service Program strives to instill a sense of stewardship of the school community and respect for responsibility to our urban neighborhood and beyond. By providing opportunities within the curriculum and other relevant activities for students to witness and understand others' needs, we hope to prepare them for a life that includes service. Our goal is to integrate knowledge and undertaking with compassion and social responsibility. Only through reflection and understanding the need to put our values into practice will students grasp the importance of the gift of caring for each other, for all humanity, and the natural world. The Society of Friends is founded on the belief that there is God in every person and that truth emerges as new voices are heard and incorporated into our understanding. We believe that the quality of the truths we know is enriched and deepened by welcoming people with diverse experiences of the world into our community. We want to foster a community that addresses the challenge of valuing difference and making every individual feel welcome, supported, and safe: a community in which each person is asked to make the rigorous commitment to recognize the Light within every other, to hear that piece of truth each person brings to the continuing dialogue which is the foundation of our community. We want our daily interactions to demonstrate that maintaining respect and pursuing the hard work of understanding difference creates strength as we define and move toward common goals. Our mission as an educational institution is to prepare our students to participate in an increasingly interdependent world and, by graduating an increasingly diverse group of students, to help build a more effective citizenry and representative leadership for the future. We seek to develop the skills and discipline necessary to communicate effectively and learn from a wide variety of experiences and points of view. This work is central to valuing diversity, to the purpose of education, and the Quaker ideals of integrity, peace, equality, and simplicity. In a world where people continue to suffer profound inequalities of opportunity, we dedicate ourselves to stretching what we have and are capable of: working to become a community more representative of the city in which we live and improving our ability to support a diverse student body. The gap between our ideals and the possible creates a struggle to commit ourselves with energy and joy. As our students, faculty, and administrative staff go about the important work of learning and growing together throughout this academic year, construction continues on the Townhouses — a key component of our Campus Redevelopment Project funded by our community members who are Lighting the Future for our students today and tomorrow. In addition to the completion of floors five and six in Hunter Hall last school year, our Sky Field — a turfed play and practice space atop the sixth floor — is now open. Additionally, a new gym floor, scoreboard, and climbing wall have been installed, underscoring our physical education and student-athletes commitment. As a Quaker school, and as NYC's oldest continuing coeducational school, Friends is distinguished by a legacy of intellectual vibrancy informed by Quaker values of integrity, equality, simplicity, community, service, and peaceful conflict resolution. Optimism and a "can do" attitude resonate throughout the school, whether it be grappling with literary analysis in English class, competing on the soccer field, or proactively supporting an important social issue. Friends students have the confidence to "go for it" to problem solve and push reset when needed. At Friends, the joy of teaching, learning, and engagement is a real experience. View full school

  18. Baptist Bible College is an institution of biblical higher education that exists to provide a Christ-centered curriculum that fosters a biblical worldview, empowering students to engage and impact their global society. For its first 36 years, the College used the facilities of First Baptist Church in Johnson City. As the student body grew from the first enrollment of 40 students, the College gradually purchased and built buildings of its own. In the 1960s, the need for a new campus became evident. In 1968, Pennsylvania Governor William Scranton assisted in locating the Clarks Summit campus for the school. Classes began in the Seminary in 1972 and in the College’s graduate programs in 1989. Baptist Bible College & Seminary's mission is to provide excellence in biblical higher education for effectivenes s in global Christian leadership.

Baptist Bible Seminary exists for the primary purpose of preparing men as they acquire the knowledge, commit themselves to the spiritual ideals, and develop the skills that will enable them to qualify for ordination and enter into a worldwide Baptist ministry. We believe the Holy Bible was written by men supernaturally inspired that it has truth without any admixture of error for its matter and therefore is, and shall remain to the end of the age, the only complete and final revelation of the will of God to man the true center of Christian union and the supreme standard by which all human conduct, creeds and opinions should be tried.

  19. Wyoming Seminary, also known as "Sem," is an independent day and boarding school located within a few hours of New York, Philadelphia, and Baltimore. We are close to recreational areas for skiing, hiking, and water sports, within minutes of world-class dining, have access to sporting events, major musical acts, and the amenities of a more populous downtown area. Sem has two campuses: the Lower School in Forty Fort (toddler through grade and the Upper School in Kingston (grade nine through postgraduate). Sixty percent of faculty live on campus, and seventy-nine percent hold advanced degrees. In the classroom, more than 150 courses are offered, and many electives are unique to Sem. A cutting-edge creative arts facility is the home to our vibrant arts program, and Sem has three new state-of-the-art sports facilities for our athletic program. Additionally, students choose from over 30 clubs and activities to suit nearly every interest. Sem is a microcosm of the national and global community. Every year, we are home to more than 100 international students from over 20 countries. This diversity enables students to develop a global perspective that will be essential for success in the future and creates friendships that last a lifetime. Wyoming Seminary's school motto, "Verum, Pulchrum, Bonum," not only served as the guiding spirit of Wyoming Seminary in 1844 but remains the words by which we live today. The values expressed in Sem's motto distinguish us. They express the Sem difference: we dare to teach students the truth that character matters, we emphasize the importance of friendships with others who look and think differently. We stand for something, and we are proud of it. As an independent college preparatory school, Wyoming Seminary seeks to create active learners, responsible citizens, community leaders, and ethical individuals ready to take their place in the global community of the 21st century. True to our traditions and values, Wyoming Seminary is committed to supporting promising students from varied backgrounds. Our curriculum emphasizes competition and collaboration, critical thinking and creativity, self-respect, and respect for others. We challenge our students to discover their talents and passions by offering an integrated program rich in artistic, athletic, and extracurricular opportunities that complement the school's core commitment to academic excellence, personal integrity, spiritual growth, and community service. It is unquestionably right, beautiful, and sound that the world is made up of diverse people. Wyoming Seminary strives to build a learning environment that reflects the disparate cultures, religions, languages, backgrounds, identities, and perspectives of our world. To that end, our school seeks to encourage students' application and the hiring of faculty, staff, and administrators who represent diversity. Sustaining and nurturing such a community is an ongoing process, and we will continue to foster the respect, empathy, and curiosity that allow it to flourish. We proudly encourage students to seek out and embrace what makes them unique. Perhaps this results from our confident history as one of America's oldest continuously coeducational boarding schools, founded in 1844 at a time when schools with high moral aspirations were called "seminaries." Or it could result from our location, nestled in northeast Pennsylvania's beautiful Wyoming valley, known as "the valley with a heart," where a safe, family-oriented environment supports self-discovery. Wyoming Seminary's picturesque setting includes buildings on the National Register of Historic places as well as state of the art 600-seat Kirby Center for the Creative Arts, which recently hosted the 2015 Pulitzer Prize-winning oratorio, "Anthracite Fields." Our students thrive in the small city environments of Kingston and Wilkes-Barre, only two hours from New York City and Philadelphia. At Sem, we appreciate the beauty of compelling individuals with original ideas. Our outstanding faculty delivers an exciting lineup of classes, including an impressive array of creative electives that support independent thought. Here you will find that one of the lead actors in the school musical is also President of the "Nerdvana" club. One of our tops, nationally ranked wrestlers, also have expressed a passionate interest in pottery. After graduation, Sem graduates span the globe. Our international alumni base includes courageous, independent thinkers: a former U.S. Poet Laureate, professionals who have worked in both the Reagan and Clinton White Houses, and American developmental psychologist Howard Gardner, creator of the theory of multiple intelligences.

  21. Tokyo Union Theological Seminary (TUTS) has deep roots and a rich tradition. Its story reaches back to the earliest beginnings of the Protestant church movement in Japan. Protestant theological education began in Japan among the earliest converts. In 1872, the first theological class was held in Yokohama by Samuel R. Brown, a missionary of the Reformed Church in America (RCA). The following year, Henry Stout, also of the RCA, opened a theological training center in Nagasaki. Soon afterward, American Presbyterian missionaries Thompson, Carrothers, and Hepburn and missionaries of the United Presbyterian Church of Scotland, started their work in similar ways in Yokohama and Tokyo. TUTS continues to cherish its relationships with the churches of the Reformed and Methodist traditions. At the same time, it continues to be inspired by the spirit and theological convictions of Masahisa Uemura. It is significantly influenced by his emphasis on the formation of healthy, responsible churches. Academically, TUTS is widely respected as a leading theological institution in Japan. At the same time, it is evangelical and dedicated to preparing men and women for the challenging task of Christian ministry in Japan and around the world. TUTS is an accredited university and graduate school of theology. A few students enroll directly after graduating from high school and begin a four-year college course leading to a Bachelor of Divinity degree. Most continue for an additional two years to gain the equivalent of a Master of Divinity degree. Most new students, however, have already completed a four-year college degree program. These students study for two years to achieve an undergraduate degree in theology and study for additional two years to obtain the equivalent of a Master of Divinity degree. Also, TUTS offers a program leading to a doctoral degree in Biblical Studies or Systematic Theology. The seminary campus is located in Mitaka, about 20 kilometers west of downtown Tokyo. The 1.6-hectare campus is adjacent to International Christian University and Japan Lutheran College & Seminary, with which meaningful cooperative relationships are maintained. In the shape of a cross, the main seminary building contains a chapel, classrooms, faculty offices, meeting rooms, and administrative offices. The library building provides additional classrooms, faculty offices, missiological institutes, a pastoral care center, and a large meeting room. The dormitory and faculty housing are on campus. The seminary has one of the largest theological libraries in Asia: approximately 100,000 volumes, mostly Japanese, German, and English. TUTS stresses both spiritual and intellectual disciplines and emphasizes both academic and practical training. The faculty and students lead the daily chapel services, and nearly all participate in regularly scheduled retreats. They also serve actively in local churches. The TUTS curriculum develops a foundation for theological study by emphasizing the liberal arts and reading knowledge of English and German. Upon this base is built a framework of biblical studies, including Greek and Hebrew, of church history, systematic theology, and practical theology. At the master's degree level, academic work culminates in writing a thesis in either the biblical field or the systematic field. Practical training is also emphasized. Theory and practice of pastoral work, preaching, worship, counseling, Christian education, and church administration prepare students for entering the church ministry. A supervised field education program provides direction and oversight for both regular participation and service in local churches throughout the seminary career and summer field education.

  22. In 1901, when the people were crying out "we have nowhere to go" as the nation was losing sovereignty and hope, God made way for Pyeongyang Theological Seminary, which grew into the Presbyterian University Theological Seminary. Now, at the beginning of the twenty-first century, at this time of yet another crisis, we deeply desire to answer God's calling and to be used as His instrument once again. Missionary Moffett began teaching Chong-Sub Kim and Ki-Chang Pang at his home in Pyongyang in 1901. And in 1903, the Presbyterian Council decided to start theological education in Korea officially. Missionaries from each Presbyterian synod went to Pyongyang to teach a course designed to give three months of study and nine months of ministry in five years. In June of 1907, the first class of seven students graduated from the theological course, and among them were the first ordained pastors of Korea: Sun-Joo Kil, Suk-jin Han, and Ki-Pung Lee. The purpose of Presbyterian University and Theological Seminary, a theological educational institution of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church of Korea, under the aegis of the Department of Education of the Republic of Korea, is to provide higher education through nurturing leaders and ministers of the church in the foundation of biblical theology, in adherence to the confessions of faith and Constitution of the Presbyterian Church. To proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ and to embody the Kingdom of God. To cultivate leaders and ministers who will serve the church, the society, and the nation. Training for piety, Pursuing academic excellence, Practising the Gospel. We have a dream to see the kingdom of God realized here and now through the proclamation of the gospel. For that dream, we will devote ourselves to training piety, cultivating scholarship, and practicing the gospel to equip the PUTS community as workers of the kingdom of God and edify the church as a herald of the kingdom of God. Above all, we are determined to love the church, this nation, and the world in faith, truth, and deed. We, the PUTS community, cordially invite you to this exciting and glorious call to work for the kingdom of God. View full university
  23. The Seminary of Christ the King is a Roman Catholic seminary conducted by Westminster Abbey's monks with local diocesan clergy and some very dedicated lay volunteers. In drawing up its coat of arms, the Seminary selected from the wealth of available symbols to show its particular origin, identity, and mission. The beautiful 80-hectare campus provides residential accommodations along with recreational and community facilities of many kinds. On-Campus, there are two communities of seminarians – The Major Seminary, made up of seminarians from neighboring dioceses. The High School Seminary (Grades 8-12) comprises seminarians across Canada and the United States. The Seminary resides on the same grounds as the Abbey, within the Archdiocese of Vancouver, B.C. Since 1931, when the Seminary was opened in the Archdiocese, the Seminary has striven to form priests and religious in the image of Christ, the High Priest, and with the mind and heart of the Church. We emphasize liturgical and community formation without neglecting the other pillars of priestly formation and identity, viz. human, intellectual, and spiritual foundations. The College seminary program'sprogram'sprogram's goal is to form spiritual men who are well prepared for the ministerial priesthood and adjust to the changing needs of the Church while holding fast to the essentials. The Seminary of Christ, the King in its Arts and Theology departments, gives special attention to the character and spiritual formation of each seminarian, which is centered on the LiturgyLiturgyLiturgyLiturgy and builds upon the foundations of faith and reverence learned in the Christian family. The Seminary is convinced of the advantage of maturing within a community of like-minded seminarians and pursuing priesthood studies in a setting where the Church is loved and the Church Seasons and feasts help make real the mysteries of the faith and create a supportive environment for academic life. The Seminary provides experiences of apostolic and pastoral life that aim at actively engaging each seminarian in the diocesan life of the Church. The purpose of the High School seminary is to provide an atmosphere within which young men can grow in holiness, i.e., grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ and the Seminary community. Only through such growth are we able to discern God'sGod'sGod's will for us, our vocation. The Seminary's fundamental purpose is not merely to provide a good education or to be a safe environment, but to grow in our ability to follow Christ the Redeemer with generous souls and pure hearts. The Seminary follows the British Columbia Ministry of Education'sEducation'sEducation's program for Secondary Education. However, it provides the seminarians with a wholesome spiritual, communal, intellectual, and physical environment where a young man can avail himself of the means to mature in love for the Church and the Christian virtues and responsibilities. Our secondary aim is to prepare a young man to continue his formation toward the priesthood or religious life in the Major Seminary, should he be called. The Seminary of Christ the King was founded in 1931 by Archbishop William M. Duke of Vancouver. In 1939, with the Holy See'sSee's approval, the Archbishop entrusted the Seminary to Benedictine monks as a training center for diocesan and religious priesthood students. In 1951 the Seminary opened the Faculty of Theology. The Monastery was raised to abbatial status in 1953 under the title Westminster Abbey. In 1966, through its University Charter, the Seminary was empowered to grant the Bachelor of Arts degree and degrees in Theology. Welcome to the website of the Seminary of Christ the King. The Benedictines of Westminster Abbey have had the responsibility of guiding the discernment and formation of men for the Catholic priesthood at the Seminary of Christ the King since September 1939. Our monastic charisms of community life and daily celebration of the Eucharist and the LiturgyLiturgyLiturgyLiturgy of the Hours typical introduce our seminarians into community life and the LiturgyLiturgyLiturgyLiturgy and form them as men of communion united in the Church'sChurch'sChurch's worship of the Father. With our strong emphasis on community life and a daily rhythm shaped by the liturgical cycle, seminarians experience, often for the first time in their lives, the richness of the Catholic Faith in all its intensity and beauty. The splendor of our natural surroundings, as we are located on a hilltop above the Fraser Valley, in no small way enhances the sense of wonder that we hope to instill in our seminarians here at SCK. Committed to the four pillars of priestly formation, human, spiritual, intellectual, and pastoral, the formators and professors at the Seminary of Christ the King accompany the seminarians throughout their years of formation and assist them to integrate these facets of the whole man into their lives so that our ordained alumni are capable and zealous priests after the heart of Jesus. Our Seminary offers both a four-year program in Philosophy, a B.A. degree, and a four-year Theology program with B.Th. And M.Div. Degrees for those who meet the graduation requirements. Intellectual formation at SCK draws upon the fonts of Scripture, the Magisterium, Conciliar teaching, and St. Thomas Aquinas. We hope that our seminarians will be men who think with the Church and appreciate and appropriate into their hearts and minds that which is right, fair, and beautiful in classical and contemporary thinking, literature, and art. Human formation at SCK occurs informal settings such as lectures, conferences, and personal direction and informal ways such as part of life in the community. Students take responsibility for many household chores and share in the work of preparing and celebrating the LiturgyLiturgyLiturgyLiturgy. We welcome inquiries from Catholic men interested in discerning a possible call to the priesthood or consecrated life. We have three or four weekends each year for men to stay with us and find out something about seminary life and the joys and challenges of following Jesus'Jesus'Jesus' call to come and follow Him and be fishers of men.
  24. Jakarta Theological Seminary (JTS) is the oldest university-level theological seminary in Indonesia, located at the center of the capital of the republic. Jakarta Theological Seminary (JTS) was pioneered by Dr. Hendrik Kraemer and founded in 1934. Prof. Dr. Theodor Müller-Krüger became the first principal of the school. From the beginning, he had emphasized the need of developing a theologian in loco (local theology) in Indonesia, especially through this seminary. Since its beginning, JTS had felt it necessary to take a key role in developing theological thought that will enable the church to respond to the continually changing situations it faces while, on the other hand, to be able to develop theological thought that guides Indonesia’s journey, by the hopes of all people. Until today, we are continuing this tradition of developing theologia in loco (theology in context). The school was supported by several churches in existence at that time, among others the Protestant Church in Indonesia (De Protestantse Kerk in Nederlands- Indié) and the Batak Protestant Christian Church (Huria Kristen Batak Protestant). Eventually, the number of supporting churches increased to sixteen, plus the Communion of the Churches in Indonesia (CCI or PGI) representing all members besides the 14 churches supporting the seminary directly. Lecturers and students came from many different denominations and thus the seedbed of the ecumenical movement in Indonesia was planted. Our students come from approximately 30 church synods. Our master’s and doctoral programs enjoy the trust of many theological schools for training and preparing their future lecturers or improving the quality of those who are already in service. Through its graduate studies programs as well as through its participation in the South East Asia Graduate School of Theology (SEAGST), until 2012, JTS has produced around 200 masters and 50 doctors of theology. Vision to make JTS the best center for theological education in Indonesia, where theology is discussed and studied together not only in the classroom but also with people at the grassroots level, to enable members of both communities to live out their faith in context.
