From 1970 Queen’s pioneered ecumenical training with the Methodist Church as a primary partner. Queen’s was also a pioneer of ecumenical part time training and of having a dedicated research centre. Queen’s is dedicated to excellence in theological education and personal formation by: Nurturing and equipping Christians in their discipleship; Preparing people for mission and ministry in lay and ordained roles; Resourcing research that serves the mission of God in the world. We celebrate unity in diversity, in a community that is international, multi-cultural, and ecumenical. We aim to enable Christians to deepen their spiritual life, to grow in a faith that is generous, enquiring, deeply rooted and creative in thought and practice, and to be passionate for God’s work in God’s world. So whatever your reason for embarking on theological study, wherever God is calling you to, you’ll find Queen’s a hospitable but challenging place. We’ll help you grow through a journey of exploration and development, as your beliefs are tested and strengthened, and as God grows and forms you for your future service. Whatever your reason for theological study or training at Queen’s you will find a community that is: Ecumenical and inclusive Where we cherish our ecumenical commitment and our desire to be inclusive of a range of traditions within as well as between churches. Our aim is to create safe spaces in which Christians of many traditions learn from and with each other, becoming more confident in their own traditions without defensiveness or fear of those who think or believe differently. We seek to be communities of learning and worship in which we learn more fully to be the Body of Christ - generous in receiving and offering the gifts and insights of denominations, traditions, and different theological perspectives; respecting and valuing distinctiveness in ways that forms people who are confident and rooted within particular traditions; and growing in the unity that is formed in diversity that enables people to be confident in working with other traditions and open to the unity that is God’s will for the Church.
