Student Leadership Program

The Student Leadership Program is an annual opportunity for a select group of Midwestern Seminary and Spurgeon College students to serve the seminary, college, and the local church.  Students will be chosen each year to lean on-campus events and travel on behalf of the school.  With insight from local leaders, faculty, and staff, these students will receive unique experience and practical skills in preparation for a lifetime of fruitful ministry.

As representatives of Midwestern Seminary and Spurgeon College, student leaders must exhibit the integrity and character in keeping with the honor of Christian service in God’s kingdom.  Leaders will be expected to practice hospitality to guests and friends of the seminary and college with a servant-hearted attitude and willingness to put others before self-interest.
