The Supervised Ministry Seminar helps students prepare for ministry through an internship in a setting appropriate for their calling/gifts and through reflection on their ministry. Each week, supervision by an experienced practitioner provides feedback, guidance, nurture, and evaluation, as does the seminar in which students present and process incidents in ministry.
