The East Ohio District serves local churches by helping better prepare those who want to effectively and confidently answer their call to local church and community ministry. We help you develop your understanding of God’s Word, grow in your theological understanding, and gain practical ministry skills.

 

Whether you feel called to pursue pastoral ministry and are working toward ordination, or you feel called to serve in the local church in some way and are seeking to be better equipped for what God has called you to do, the School of Ministry is for you.

 

Classes

 

Classes are 8 weeks long and meet once a week on Zoom. Each class requires a commitment of 10-15 hours/week including class time, reading, projects/assignments, and practical ministry experience.

  

All 21 classes will be offered over a 3-year period and the two required classes of the six needed for a first-time District License will be offered annually.
