Only persons who desire to play a critical role in the formation of the next generation of professional Christian leadership are to be invited to be FE Supervisors. The Field Education Supervisor is the professional person within the Field Education setting who has primary supervisory and teaching responsibility to the student intern. Supervisors will need more than 3 years of church experience or experience in an agency setting in their field. If the student is pursuing ordination, the supervisor must be ordained for 3 years or more. The purpose is for the student and supervisor to explore meanings of ministry, think theologically about ministry events, increase self-awareness individually and as a team, and grow with faithfulness together.
Sensitive feedback is appropriate.
This network should form a supportive basis for student growth and reflection on ministry.
