Context and Ministry

What we understand ministry to be and how we practice it changes in different social, religious, cultural, geographical, and other contexts. In this course, students begin to develop the knowledge, skills and dispositions required for understanding and responding to the particular demands of diverse ministry contexts. And in so doing, they articulate anew their own sense of vocation in relation to their particular religious and cultural traditions. Evaluation includes participation in site visits outside of class, small group discussions and a pass on three short reflection papers. 80% participation is required to successfully complete this Pass/Fail course. Successful completion of this course is required for enrollment in Contextual Education II EMF3020YY.
