Education for Ministry (EfM) will be offered in Santa Barbara this year beginning in September. EfM welcomes all new and returning participants to this program of theological education at a distance.
What is EfM you ask? Every baptized person is called to ministry. The Education for Ministry (EfM) program provides people with the education to carry out that ministry.
Local groups meet weekly throughout the United States and overseas from September through the following June. Meetings are generally three hours and consist of worship, group study, and theological reflection — which is the heart of the program. EfM’s mission is to provide an educational foundation and support for all ministries through deepening of faith and understanding of the church and living theologically in the world.
