1 Class of 2019 Enrollment Brochure Summer 2016 staff and students Be a Part of the Next Class of this innovative Savannah Presbytery Ministry known as the School of the Laity! Registration Deadline Friday, May 19 th Brought to you by the Education & Training Ministry Team of Savannah Presbytery
2 The School of the Laity is a groundbreaking lay education ministry of the Savannah Presbytery, sponsored and conducted by the Education and Training Ministry Team. The intent of this program is to prepare lay people for their Christian witness to the world. The Church exists for the sake of the world to do the will of God as revealed in Jesus Christ (John 3:16). Focused on Scripture, reformed theology, and ministry, the School of the Laity is a two-year program of weekend classes with additional homework and preparation time. Students participate in a total of three summer sessions, two fall sessions, and two spring sessions. As evidence of their serious intent, students pay tuition fees and provide for their own transportation costs. Classes are held at the beautiful Epworth by the Sea Conference Center on St. Simons Island, GA. Graduates can later apply to enter the Commissioned Ruling Elder Program, a continuing education program that prepares individuals for ministry, and possible commissioning to a church or ministry. History of the J. Richard Bass School of the Laity The School of the Laity began in the 1980s as a vision of the late Rev. Dr. J. Richard Dick Bass, who was then Executive Presbyter of Savannah Presbytery. Dr. Bass saw the desire of laypersons to engage in serious study of scripture, theology, and ministry. In response to that desire, this important program was born. In the fall of 1988, ten lay people of Savannah Presbytery became the first graduating class of this innovative Presbytery ministry. To date approximately 300 laypeople have participated in the School of the Laity, representing two thirds of the churches of the Presbytery. Its graduates are providing outstanding leadership in their congregations, the Presbytery, and the Presbyterian Church, U.S.A. Course Information Summer Courses are held in June and consist of 18 hours of class time with additional hours of pre & post class study. There are three summer sessions, two are taught by Presbyterian Seminary and college professors and the last class is taught by a Presbytery minister. The summer courses are Introduction to the Bible, Introduction to Reformed Theology, and Practical Ministry 2. Fall and Spring Courses are held in October and March and consist of 12 hours of class time with additional hours of pre and post class study. Savannah Presbytery ministers and other qualified leaders teach these studies on Old Testament, New Testament, History, Mission and Polity, and Practical Ministry 1.
3 Textbooks & Homework Books or Textbooks requested by the instructors may be purchased or borrowed from a church library or from a previous School of the Laity class participant.
