Ministry Formation Program (TCTS)
When I wanted to do some serious theological study, Trinity was the obvious choice for me coming from an Anglo Catholic background originally in the United Kingdom but in Melbourne for the last forty years. I began studying for my Diploma in Ministry online some six years ago as I found this a good way to get back into study after 35 years.
I have completed thirteen units on line and done a unit of CPE and decided to do Ministry Formation to complete my diploma. I am also investigating a call to the Diaconate and Ministry Formation is a great place to do that. I was initially worried that at 58 years old I would be a bit out of place as a student! But have been pleasantly surprised to find that I am not the only over 50 to be in the program, I have also discovered many of the concerns that I faced are the same as those faced by younger people too. Trinity ministry formation Program is certainly friendly and supportive.
