Global Theological Education

The Perkins Global Theological Education Program prepares men and women to lead congregations in culturally sensitive, competent, and effective mission both within and outside the United States. The program offers significant immersion experiences in cultures other than those in which participants live. Through these encounters students gain first-hand experience in building intercultural relationships, and learn invaluable lessons from others with different life experiences and outlooks.

INTERCULTURAL IMMERSION COURSES - Information and Registration

CULTURAL INTELLIGENCE SEMINARS - Resources and Registration

The GTE Program also makes cultural immersion experiences and other resources available to teachers, facilitators, and lay leaders of short-term mission. Using these resources, short-term mission teams complement their practical preparations with reflection on the theology and spirituality of mission toward the goals of both personal growth and more faithful partnerships with others.
