Project
Burning Bush is a program for high school youth (junior/11th
grade) who are considering ministry as a vocation. In short,
it is a place to imagine and explore how their gifts and
talents can be used for God’s purposes, alongside others
who are experiencing the same type of call.
-
Now in its seventh year, PROJECT BURNING BUSH
is a yearlong program with three phases:
1.
Institute ~ Students are challenged to
consider their call to ministry by studying for two weeks with
faculty and peers at Union Theological Seminary.
2.
Mentored Projects ~ After our students
leave the Institute; they create and lead a mentored project
with a church leader at their home church.
3.
Vocational Retreat ~ The following summer,
students are invited back to campus where they spend a three-day
weekend at Union-PSCE. They reconnect with friends, share the
results of their Mentored Projects, and learn how to achieve
their vocational goals once they leave the program.
After students exit the program, PROJECT
BURNING BUSH stays in touch with them as they make choices
for college and careers.
-
Transportation (air fare) cost will be provided by
the Presbytery of Southern Kansas.
-
Because of our recent grant from Lilly, attendance at
Project Burning Bush is free.
Students may want to bring some funds for personal
purchases.
