Are you “Pre-Sem”?
Everyone knows about Pre-Med, Pre-Law, and other forms of pre-professional
programs here at Hope College. Now we have a support network for students
considering further study in theology or religion.
- Have you ever thought about becoming a pastor, a music minister,
a missionary, a priest, a youth minister, or a worship leader?
- Are you discerning a possible call into a field such as Christian
education, parish nursing, or church-based relief work?
- Have your professors inspired you to consider graduate work in theology
or religious studies so that you might one day teach theology, religion,
or Biblical studies?
The “Pre-Sem” list is for anyone who is even vaguely considering
a career in or connected to the church. We continue to expand our list
of students who are considering further study beyond Hope College at a
theological seminary, a university divinity school, or a graduate program
in religion.
By signing
up, you will receive an email newsletter that keeps you informed about:
You’ll also
be invited to join the Pre-Seminary Society,
a group that will gather together periodically under the guidance
of Trygve Johnson, the Dean of the Chapel, to:
- Talk together about what it means to discern
a call to ministry or service to the church.
- Listen to speakers from seminaries, churches,
and other organizations on a variety of topics of relevance to
students interested in further theological or religious study
and church leadership.
- Read and discuss books and articles that
might be helpful in forming your sense of call to ministry, service,
and leadership.
- Enjoy the gifts of food and conversation.
