Description
The two-year residency program at
Marysville Grace provides a combination of hands-on ministry experience and
academic training to equip residents for a future position in the local
church. In terms of compensation, each
resident is provided a yearly salary totaling approximately $20,000. However, in addition, Marysville Grace provides
the full amount over the two-year program for each resident to complete an
online ministry-related master’s degree at an approved seminary. This academic stipend is intended to cover
books, tuition, supplies, and any other costs which may be associated with
seminary courses. Previous residents
have enrolled in a variety of seminaries, including Grace Theological Seminary,
Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, and Liberty University’s School of
Divinity. While completing a master’s
degree, residents are also given multiple opportunities to observe and engage
in the many ministries of Marysville Grace.
Hands-on experiences include hospital visitation, discipleship,
counseling, teaching, preaching, staff meetings, weekend worship music, youth
ministry, and administration.
