Your Presbyterian Theological Seminaries at a Glance

Every day life has changed significantly since the first of your Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) theological seminaries were founded in 1794 and 1812. Over the years, additional theological institutions were established, carrying on the Presbyterian tradition of providing educated leadership for congregations from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Rim.

Today, your ten seminaries, as well as two theological institutions related to the denomination by covenant agreement, have been entrusted to provide the educational foundation pastors need to be able to preach, teach, pray and lead. Together they:

  • prepare men and women to be pastors, educators and musicians for congregations,
  • provide continuing education and advanced degree programs for ministers of the Word and Sacrament and for lay church leaders, and
  • serve as centers for theological discourse, reflection and research for the benefit of the wider church during changing times.

As we continue into the 21st century, each of your theological institutions will continue to provide a Presbyterian ethos for learning and spiritual formation — theological education in the Reformed tradition.
