Overview

"This new initiative is an exciting opportunity for Pentecostal young people interested in a dynamic learning experience, as they prepare for Pentecostal ministry. Plan to join us." - Bradley Truman Noel, Program Director

This Pentecostal track is designed to combine the main core of biblical and liberal arts courses along with specific training in Pentecostal theology and ministry. Designed initially to serve the leadership needs of the Pentecostal Assemblies of Newfoundland and Labrador, this learning experience includes a full semester in training in a Pentecostal church community or ministry, leading to ordination. Students will graduate with a BA university degree and the core requirements in preparation for ordination. Pentecostals from other regions may apply. Provision will be made for field service within their respective region.
