Master of Arts in Pastoral Ministries

The Master of Arts in Pastoral Ministries provides a holistic approach to service in the Church integrating both action and reflection. Composed of three dimensions - foundations, skills and integration - the program is anchored in a commitment to the methodology of practical theology.

Our academic vision is modeled in the program in the following ways:

• Formal classroom experiences, which ground the student in the Christian Tradition in all its richness.
• Frequent opportunities for interaction between faculty and students beyond the classroom. 
• Internet enhancement of learning. 
• Individual advisement as an integral element of students’ educational program. 
• A rich ecumenical and multi-cultural experience provided by a diverse student body. 
• Opportunities to benefit from the research conducted by the Institute for Pastoral Ministries. 
• Interaction with visiting Church scholars of national and international stature.
