Giving with the Mission in Focus<\/h2>\n

In fulfilling its mission to thoroughly prepare followers of Jesus Christ to serve as pastors, missionaries, educators, and lay-leaders, we recognize that the rewards for such service are eternal, not financial. Therefore, we seek to minimize the cost to students, keeping tuition rates between 25% to 30% of the true cost of their education. The remainder is made up via the support of God\u2019s people, from one-time, regular to lasting gifts. There are a variety of ways that you can support this ministry.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n \n
