Hello everyone, we are identifying the main parts of our vision and defining what each of us should do.

We plan to meet in Hanoi in March to further plan and develop the Seminary's M.A. Program. While we do not require in-person attendance for M.A. cohorts, we are working to extend our reach to remote students by facilitating study accelerators and tours where seminary personnel can visit various regions where we have students and meet them where they are.

Typically, this includes hosting events at regional and national conferences, but will also extend to working with host congregations.
