Ordination Resources

Evangelical Covenant Church (ECC)

The Evangelical Covenant Church Orientation Program is designed to allow interested candidates to meet the requirements for ordination.  Bethel Seminary has partnered with this program to increase accessibility to its requirements.  There are four required courses (two are credit bearing). Credit bearing courses are eligible for elective transfer credit in your existing degree program and will be hosted on Bethel’s St. Paul Campus. Bethel Seminary Assessments are transferable to the assessment requirements for ECC ordination. To begin the application process and take advantage of upcoming orientation courses, explore the resources provided below. Both male and female candidates are welcome.
