TEL Program Is Coming to Hawai'i

Pacific School of Religion (PSR)'s Theological Education for Leadership (TEL) Program is coming to Hawai'i! TEL is an online learning program of special courses and seminars for people who want to study theology and ministry in community. TEL is multicultural in its design and focus. The program may be engaged at the level that works for you—for personal spiritual formation, lay leadership training, professional growth, or continuing education.

In Hawai'i, TEL students will come together at a host site (or virtually, at least for now) to participate in the online courses and seminars. Plans are underway for host sites on Hawai'i Island, Maui, Kaua'i, Lana'i, and O'ahu, with facilitators to support the student cohorts at each site. Classes are scheduled to begin in September.

Here are the scheduled classes and instructors for 2020:
