Let's end the year strong!
This spring we enrolled 459 students across all our programs and degrees. They learn with us primarily via Zoom from across the United States and around the world, studying in English, Korean, Burmese, Karen, and Kachin. They have formed beautiful friendships and support systems in their virtual learning communities, and they are thriving in their areas of service and ministries: in congregations, non-profits, classrooms, and hospitals. At our May 18 Commencement, we celebrated with 79 who completed their seminary journeys. We give thanks for their resiliency, persistence, and dedication.
Central is living fully into our strategic plans for the future. Our Shawnee building is on the market as we search for a new, right-sized space. By the end of the year, we look forward to all these plans being realized and our resources and energy being fully focused on our students.
