Committed to building healthy leaders for the
development of healthy Christian communities, SSU’s ministry programs
are exceptional, engaging the whole person.
Come discover rich training grounds for individuals
wishing to devote their lives to ministry and missions, either in or
outside of the church. SSU offers several ways forward – from diploma
level (for mature students without prior degree) to the Master of Ministry
degree.
Distinctives of the program include: an ancient-future
perspective, gained through discussing both classical Christian writers and
contemporary voices; mentoring relationships; and a trans-denominational
approach, with respect for traditional, contemporary and emerging forms of
church leadership – all presented in round-table, small class
settings.
SSU’s Ministry Program offers an intentional
blend of serious academic work, practical training and personal spiritual
formation – providing an excellent foundation to prepare students for
a lifetime of serving God, in the church and in the world.

Dare to take the walls off the classroom.
Discover the rich history of ancient Pompeii in class;
then make those pages come to life – by setting foot in its ruins.
Whether it is a lecture in Venice, a class in Paris or a discussion
in Bangkok, St. Stephen’s University is unlike any other.
Located in New Brunswick, SSU welcomes students into a
unique trans-denominational Christian community. SSU offers Bachelor
of Arts degrees with a classic humanities focus, as well as new programs in
International Studies, Worship Studies & Spiritual Formation and
Ministry studies.
Studying in a small class setting amidst historic
walls only adds to the unique charm that is SSU. Students live and learn in
a Christian academic context, resurrecting a sense of community that is all
but lost in our culture today.
Arguably the most popular aspect of the program is the
travel-study component. Students spend two terms overseas with their class
as part of their degree – one in Western Europe and one in South East
Asia.
These travel terms highlight SSU’s desire for
students to experience an integrated education, by combining classroom
knowledge with cultural exposure.
