“My main focus while I was there was Pastoral ministries, but I was able to get opportunities and study in kids ministry and in youth ministries. My favourite memory from attending MCS, [is] the friendships that I built, the community that has been able to be with me all throughout my ministry years.” – Kara, MCS Alumna

“My three years at Master’s College and Seminary have truly been a blessing. I have gained the in-depth knowledge I needed to grow personally and better assist with my ministry. The professors, staff, and students have been incredible, and I am deeply appreciative of the wisdom and knowledge they’ve poured into me. I can unequivocally say that I am grateful I followed the Holy Spirit’s leading to Master’s College and Seminary.”

“During my time at Master’s I have learned so much about my calling, ministry, interpreting the Bible and my own walk. The staff at Master’s have been phenomenal in both their course content and their ability to shepherd and care for students.”

What people are saying…

Clayton Culham
“While at MCS the staff, leadership, and curriculum prioritized my growth and discipleship as a follower of Jesus Christ. I’m thankful for the mentorship and investment in me as a Christian first and foremost. Among that focus on spiritual growth, I experienced foundational teaching helping me to develop a healthy theology, and training in how to continually learn, maintain an open mind and grow in my understanding of the Christian life and ethic post-graduation. Finally, my time at MCS specifically equipped me and empowered me to become a leader prepared to serve in the local church context in any context from rural to urban, from lay leadership to pastoral staff.”
Clayton Culham, 2015 Graduate, B.Th. Pastoral Ministry | Campus Pastor, Clearview Community Church (Creemore, ON)

Choosing MCS was a step of faith and obedience. Being at MCS has helped me prepare for my calling and ministry. It provided a family, helped me gain more knowledge of the Bible and more insight into ministry. MCS has pushed me to become the person God had called me to be.
