1 MATUL REPORT MATUL Commission - Rio 2014

2 Brief description of any particular contribution you wish to bring related to the focus, or another specialty you should be presenting as a paper that brings some of the expertise learned at your school. Our discussions evolve around the following questions: What is our vision for transformation? What kind of graduates do we want to produce and how are we going to do that? What will be our educational philosophy, approach and kind of curriculum we need? What extra steps are we going to take to put that into action? What kind of Christians are we shaping? Some are looking for a sense of community. Envisioning to develop the ATS-CCS (Center for Continuing Studies) model type for CTUL -- offering church-based grassroots modular courses, on a certificate level of TUL. This means bringing the seminary into the communities. DESCRIPTION MATUL REPORT 2014

3 MATUL OBJECTIVES

4 What objectives would your school have in terms of learning from/linking to the other schools at this gathering? What can it contribute? How your school will take the open door to contribute to the global progressions we have together? ATS aims to equip students in critical thinking so that they can see what really matters, as look at transformation from a number of different traditions, worldviews and approaches ATS has a transformational vision at our core for a long lime, thus we have a mature theological framework of transformation adapted to a context of urban poverty ATS wants to learn with other schools on how to develop theological training and spirituality to bring it to the churches as the center of transformation in the community ATS strives for continuous learning about urban poverty, ministry and transformation to further enhance our own MATUL curriculum OBJECTIVES

5 What objectives would your school have in terms of learning from/linking to the other schools at this gathering? What can it contribute? How your school will take the open door to contribute to the global progressions we have together? Have a very powerful and rooted vision of urban transformation See the church as God's Name is manifested. The development of relationships, showing reconciliation through the cross. Living with the quality of life that is sustainable. MATUL REPORT 2014 To see the church as God s agent, we don't need to do social justice but the church itself is the social justice. We are acknowledging the brokenness in the city and seeing God at work there bringing Shalom. (not a modernizing technological way of transformation but very holistic and integrated) We want to learn from other schools in different contexts and cultures about the different applications of transformational leadership principles OBJECTIVES
