Do you have questions about your faith?  Most people do, and most find it challenging to get answers.  Education for Ministry (EfM) was developed by the School of Theology in Sewanee, Tennessee, to provide a mechanism for people to work through those questions.  This four-year course of study is led by a mentor who provides the framework for the group to connect faith to their daily lives through reading and discussion.

Meeting once a week in a small group, you will begin to think theologically, reflect faithfully, and speak civilly when confronted by beliefs and principles in opposition to your own.  And that’s something we can all appreciate in today’s world.

By being an EfM participant, you will learn how to articulate your faith.  You will learn how to shape your faith into action.  You will become involved in ministries in your community, and you will make a difference. Since the inception of this vital program in 1976, more than 95,000 people have participated in it.  EfM groups meet regionally in nearly every diocese of The Episcopal Church, in six provinces of the Anglican Communion, and in virtual classrooms with participants from across the globe.  We would love to have you join us!
