| Invitation to Clergy | |  Learn about Dynamic and Tested Christian Ministry
Saint Paul School of Theology and UM Church of the Resurrection have joined forces to offer a course that centers on the ministry programs at COR.
Each Friday, the course focuses on a different ministry area: e.g., preaching, Congregational Care, Missions, Worship, etc. Most of the time we meet at Saint Paul, but on a couple occasions, we will travel to the Leawood campus of Resurrection.
You are welcome to drop in to the class sessions at your convenience. But we only have room for 3 visitors at a time, so we request that you contact Dr. Martin to reserve your space by email robert.martin@spst.edu.
There is no cost; it is completely free as a service to you from the seminary and UM Church of the Resurrection. Schedule of topics.
