Pathways to Ministry in the UMC 2024

Join us on February 29th for a lunchtime discussion about pathways to ministry in the United Methodist Church, and learn how Garrett can support United Methodist students in whatever pathway they feel led!

Learn from alums, staff, and students about the ministry of:

Elders – those who are called to ministries of “Word, Service, Order, and Sacrament,”
Deacons – those who are called to ministries of “Word, Service, Compassion, and Justice,”
Licensed Local Pastors – ministers called to a local congregation and community, and
Lay ministers – those called to live out their baptismal vows in non-ordained ministry.

Join us for this hour-long conversation to learn how Garrett supports different calls and learn about which degrees might better support general or specialized types of ministry.
