      Theological Foundations for Youth 2024

      Jul 08 - Jul 26, 2024

      |

      Reformed Presbyterian Theological Seminary, Pittsburgh, PA

      The Theological Foundations for Youth program is an annual ministry of the Reformed Presbyterian Theological Seminary and Youth Ministries Committee of Synod dedicated to equipping young people for a life of ministry to Christ in the Reformed Presbyterian Church by providing intensive theological instruction, practical ministry experiences, and an increased awareness of opportunities to serve Christ within the RPCNA.

      Students can expect two weeks of intensive theological instruction in the history, doctrine, and distinctive principles of the Church from Seminary professors and TFY staff (often up to 8 hours of class per day), as well as a week of practical application in the context of a local RPCNA congregation. You will also spend time at the Reformed Presbyterian institutions (Seminary, Retirement Home and Geneva College) and free time for fellowship, reflection, and recreation.

      All young people must be recommended by their Session, communicant members of the RPCNA in good standing and must be Juniors in High School going into their Senior year in the Fall of 2024. The age range of students is between 16 and 18 years old. The application deadline is March 15.
