Theology matters. Huge congratulations to the MA in Ministry & Leadership graduates we celebrated Friday night. It was a meaningful evening of worship, stories, and hearing from members of the cohort—such a gift to mark this moment together.
We’re excited to continue this work with a new Bay Area MA cohort launching this FALL in San Jose. This cohort model began a few years ago, and we’re now serving five MA cohorts in San Jose, with one recently launched in Sacramento and another in the works in Orange County. Email cpendleton@westernseminary for more details!
Our heart is to make theological training more accessible for ministry leaders across California, which is why this program was uniquely designed for our context. We’re also thrilled to share that a Doctor of Ministry program in the Bay Area will be announced soon.
We believe theological formation matters more than ever—and it’s been an honor to walk with these students through the study, sacrifice, and faithfulness that brought them to this moment. So grateful, and already missing our time together.
