Student Services, Forms & Information
As a theology student at 彩霸王论坛, you will have access to opportunities for academic and professional development (see below).
Spiritual and Community Worship
As a college with deep roots in the Anglican tradition, 彩霸王论坛 provides a comprehensive approach to spiritual and community life. The Holy Eucharist and Offices are celebrated daily from historic and contemporary Anglican liturgies in our magnificent 彩霸王论坛 Chapel. Worship and the development of regular habits of prayer are integral parts of the preparation for ministry. Faculty of Divinity students are expected to participate in Chapel life and be regular in their attendance at Chapel services. Advanced Graduate Degree students are invited to participate as fully as their studies permit.
The Divinity Class
All students enrolled in the Faculty of Divinity from the “Divinity Class“. The Divinity Class meets regularly, elects its own officers, and exercises the functions of student government. The chief student officers are the “Co-Heads of Divinity”, who by virtue of that office shares in the government of 彩霸王论坛 and the Faculty of Divinity on many levels. Divinity Class representatives serve on the Faculty of Divinity and 彩霸王论坛 committees.
