Pastor in Residence

The Pastor - in - Residence program brings ministers to the Seminary campus for study leaves stretching between a few days and two weeks in length.  During that time these clergy are involved, as their expertise and personal program design allows, in giving presentations in classes, preaching in chapel, leading forums for students, and interacting with the faculty through inclusion in formal (lectureships and classes) and informal (meals and community events) occasions.

Bringing experienced and qualified pastors to the campus enriches the Seminary’s programs and people by keeping in touch with those involved in the varied practices of ministry. Students and faculty will interact with ministers from around the country who represent a variety of specialties and ministry gifts. 

Candidates chosen to become Pastors-in-Residence are assigned a faculty partner who will work with them to plan their time of residence. Crucial to this effort is strategic selection of pastors to bring to campus, and planning far enough in advance to enable the faculty and administration to incorporate pastors into classes and co-curricular activities to take full advantage of the resources pastors can bring.
