We place a high value on spiritual formation and seek to grow as followers of Christ. To this end, we welcome all our students into intentional community through programs and events designed to create unity and robust discussion of Scripture, ministry and our callings. We desire that all of our community inquire and explore in everything they do, both inside and outside the classroom. SCHEDULE A VISIT 0 Different denominations represented in our student body. 0:1 Student-to-faculty ratio. 0K+ 5,280 ministry residency hours were completed during the 2019-20 academic year. When I began seminary, I had young children, a full-time job and more responsibilities than I should have taken on. Much of my growth came in learning how to focus my energy. And the lessons that I learned in my residency continue to help me every day. Keoni Hughes (’17) CHAPEL AT GRTS Historically, GRTS chapel services have taken place on a weekly basis during the fall and spring semesters and have been open to the public. For the Fall 2020 semester, chapel will look a little different. More details to come. To listen to audio recordings of past chapel messages, follow GRTS on SoundCloud. RESIDENCY, INTERNSHIP AND PRACTICUM EXPERIENCES At GRTS, we believe it’s important to receive real-life ministry experience as a seminary student. Most GRTS programs require a residency, internship or practicum in the ministry or field of your choosing in accordance with program requirements. This gives you the opportunity to apply what you’ve learned in practical ministry settings and expand your experience and your understanding of your calling. Ministry residency is an ideal opportunity for those seeking a pastoral role at a church or nonprofit organization, and clinical mental health counseling students are required to complete 700 practicum/internship hours of counseling practice. LEARN MORE ANCIENT WORLD OF THE BIBLE STUDY TOUR Each year, GRTS hosts a trip to Israel, Palestine and Jordan during J-Term. This is a unique opportunity to explore the ancient world of the Bible and better understand its geography, culture and history. This trip is available to all ministry students at GRTS as well as spouses and members of the GRTS community. LEARN MORE WANT TO LEARN MORE ABOUT GRTS?
