Ecuador Seminary Launches D.Min. Program
SEMISUD, a Church of God South American ministerial seminary located in Quito, Ecuador, recently launched a doctoral studies program. World Missions leaders Drs. Tim Hill and John D. Childers were in Quito as part of their “World Missions Around the World in 30 Days” tour and helped celebrate the milestone event.
The Around the World tour is usually conducted via internet technology, but on this occasion, leadership was actually in Quito to meet with Dr. David Ramirez, field director of Latin America, Central America, Mexico, and Brazil, along with other leaders for the Church of God and in Latin America.
Also on hand were Assistant General Overseer Dr. J. David Stephens and Regional Superintendent Eduardo Drachenburg. Presently, there are 33 students in partnership with the Church of God’s Pentecostal Theological Seminary in Cleveland, Tennessee.
Dr. Hill stated, “The life and breath of our denomination is in its future leaders who will be educated and trained at our excellent universities. …this program will have great impact for many years to come.”
