As God’s people entrusted to their care, you too make an eternal difference and serve a vital role in the formation of pastors!  At this present time we are inviting you to –

• Begin a Timothy Prayer Circle

A visible demonstration of the effect of Christ’s love among us is that both church and seminary are tied by their commitment to Christ.  Congregations and special groups are invited to participate in our Timothy Prayer Circle on behalf of our pastors and our seminarians as they seek to serve and proclaim the Word that creates faith and changes lives forever. 

• Host a Special Congregational Event

Special milestones, such as your congregation’s anniversary, the retirement of your pastor, or the installation or ordination of a new pastor offer congregations the opportunity to recognize and celebrate with a special thank offering gift.  Equally important, hosting a memorable event “in honor, celebration, or thanksgiving” of a special pastor or congregation will serve to encourage the recruitment and support for future pastors!
