Faith Seeking Justice Christian Leadership Certificate Program
The Faith Seeking Justice Christian Leadership Certificate aims to prepare and empower students who are committed to integrating the church鈥檚 ministry in a global context with the issues that are most relevant in our 21st Century society. Combining a curricular component of five courses with practical, co-curricular experience, you will explore themes of spiritual formation, leadership development, and doing justice over the course of your time at Shenandoah. Through it all, you will connect the wisdom you already have earned from a life of lived experience with the resources needed to be an effective, mission-focused leader no matter where life takes you after you graduate!
