School of Ministry

"I don't know if I've ever seen the Spirit move the way I've seen this week. I needed this. It's hard to be filled when you're preaching and leading. Being with others on this same journey, connecting with them, and worshiping with them has been very fulfilling. Thank you for doing this." — School of Ministry program participant

The Trinity Conference School of Ministry offers a low-impact educational experience that primarily focuses on ministry development, spiritual formation, and an introductory exploration of God's call in the lives of our laity or clergy. These studies provide a basic training for ministry in the Global Methodist Church.
