All students are encouraged to maintain regular private devotions. Students are to participate in prayer meetings and services of the local churches where they are attached.
Field Education
All full-time students should be involved in a specific ministry in order to fulfill ten hours of field education per week. Foreign students may be assigned to local churches for ministry exposure.
Ministry Exposure
Ministry teams under the supervision of the Dean of Students or a faculty member are selected to travel to various churches for promotion and ministry purposes. All students are encouraged to participate in at least one mission trip a year through the Missionary Prayer Brigade or the local church.
Small Groups
All full-time students participate in small groups for pastoral care and relationship building. These groups are led by a faculty and a student leader (from the Student Council). Students can approach the faculty for advice and counseling. This is to provide a holistic environment for spiritual formation and growth.
