The Hispanic Anabaptist Biblical Seminary (SeBAH) of Mennonite Church USA has formalized a collaboration with Mosaic Mennonite Conference and the Church of the Brethren.
SeBAH is a Spanish-language theological training initiative aimed at leaders and individuals serving in ministry within local congregations. This agreement seeks to strengthen SeBAH’s certificate-level training program for pastoral and ministerial development from an Anabaptist perspective.
Through this alliance, SeBAH will continue to offer an accessible training program for Spanish-speaking leaders. The program includes an orientation session that introduces students to academic reading and writing, as well as to the use of the educational technologies that will support the learning process. A minimum of 12 courses is offered, focusing on the ministerial competencies that are integral to the Anabaptist tradition and to the training expectations within MC USA conferences and churches.
The courses will be offered in a virtual format, utilizing the Moodle educational platform and other technological tools appropriate for online learning, thereby enabling students from various locations to participate in the program.
The Church of the Brethren, which has been working with SeBAH for 10 years, will contribute academic resources, faculty and administrative support for the development of several of the program’s courses and educational experiences. For its part, Mosaic Mennonite Conference is seeking to expand theological training opportunities for Hispanic leaders and to support the strengthening of churches.
This collaboration reflects the shared commitment of these institutions to continue investing in the formation of leaders who serve the church with faithfulness, preparation and sensitivity to the contexts in which God calls them to minister.
