My one year at Heritage has been an amazing year of spiritual growth and heart transformation. Through the theological teachings and strongly bonded community, the past eight months have stretched me out of my comfort zone, equipped me to stand firm in my faith, and taught me what it means to truly be a follower of Jesus.

Since becoming a student at Bible College, I’ve felt pressure to show that I’ve grown in my knowledge of the Bible. Almost like people expect me to know everything there is to know about God and His Word. But, through the community at Heritage, I have come to realize that being a follower of Christ doesn’t mean showing off what I know about Him. It’s about how I live out what I know and use my knowledge of the Lord to bring glory to Him in everything I think, say, and do.

This year at Heritage has given me a longing to grow closer to my Saviour, a deep love for the Lord, and a burden for those around me that need Jesus. As I head to Conestoga College in the fall for Office Administration, it’s my prayer that, above all else, Christ will shine through me and use me for His purposes as I continually seek to be transformed more into His image. I hope to impact my new school for Jesus so that others may find hope and experience the grace, mercy, and love of God in a powerful way.

It’s one of the most anticipated days of every academic year. Graduation at Heritage College & Seminary is a celebration of the hard work and devotion of the students and a memorable moment to pray for and send the graduating class into life and ministry wherever God may have them serve Him.

On Saturday, April 29, we will host our college and seminary graduates and their families and supporters on-campus in the Gymnasium of the Heritage Community Centre during two services.

The day will begin with the celebration of our college graduates at 10:00 am where we will recognize the 38 students graduating with several certificates, diplomas, and degrees.

Following the college ceremony, we will celebrate the accomplishments of Heritage Theological Seminary’s graduating class starting at 2:30 pm. This year, our seminary will award 50 graduates with their respective certificates and degrees and send them into life and ministry.

The graduation address for both ceremonies will be delivered by the Provost of Heritage College & Seminary, Dr. Steve West.

Before Graduation Day, college and seminary graduates will join the Heritage community on Friday, April 28 at the annual Graduation Banquet. Throughout the evening, graduating and returning students will receive several awards recognizing academic excellence and Christian character.

This September, Heritage Theological Seminary will launch two new programs to continue its mission to help our students major in the Word of God so that they can help churches make a world of difference wherever God calls them to live and serve Him.

The seminary will now accept applications for its new Graduate Certificate in Chaplaincy and the first of two Ministry Certificates starting in Fall 2023.

Ministry Certificate I

The Ministry Certificate exists to equip more students who serve in paid, volunteer, or bi-vocational leadership roles or those in the local church who want to grow in their knowledge of God and His Word. The two certificates have been developed specifically to give students a practical, theological education who have a deep desire to serve or lead in their local churches yet may not be able to pursue a formal seminary degree for various reasons.

In each class, students will have the opportunity to receive biblically sound theological teaching from Heritage Theological Seminary’s respected faculty. As they learn through weekly lectures, each student will continue their growth as they complete hands-on, ministry-focused assignments. Classes will also be delivered online, allowing students to finish the program without leaving their local context.

Learn more about this program at DiscoverHeritage.ca/MinistryCertificate.

Graduate Certificate in Chaplaincy

To equip those currently involved in chaplaincy ministry or looking to serve as a chaplain with a particular organization or community setting, Heritage Theological Seminary will launch its new Graduate Certificate in Chaplaincy in the Fall of 2023.

This five-course Graduate Certificate aims to provide those in the program with practical, relevant teaching that will prepare its students to encourage deep, meaningful, and lasting change in others as they share the love of Christ in their chaplaincy ministry. Each class will look at the biblical foundations for chaplaincy and the ethics of this ministry while looking at other topics like the ministry of presence, spiritual care intervention for those who are sick, dying or bereaved, and more.
