The Faith Seeking Justice – Christian Leadership Certificate Program is a three-year cohort program that integrates knowing, being and doing. Its aim is to prepare and empower leaders for the 21st century church who are committed to spiritual depth and social justice as integral aspects of the church’s ministry in a global context. The curricular component involves six religion courses fulfilling requirements for a minor in religion. To complement the curricular requirements with practical experience, students in the program will participate in co-curricular activities related to the themes of Spiritual Formation, Leadership Development and Doing Justice in a three-year cycle. Examples of co-curricular activities that may be approved for this program include covenant groups, meeting with a professional or spiritual mentor, participating in local, national and/or international service-learning opportunities, attendance at conferences or retreats, taking leadership roles in on-campus groups or events and internships. Students will be expected to participate in 10 hours of approved co-curricular activities each semester while they are in the program.
