Leadership Development

Leadership development is a crucial issue and it is a priority to assist clergy candidates in Mozambique seminaries. You can help by becoming a partner with a seminary student!

There are nearly 50 United Methodist seminary students attending UMC Cambine Seminary and Ricatla Ecumenical Seminary. These partnerships hel create personal relationships through mutual prayer and a photo exchange.

The standard covenant is for two, three or four years with a commitment to:

  1. Mutual prayer for your covenant partner;
  2. Name a layperson in your church or group to be your Mozambique ministry leader;
  3. Write to your student partner at least once a year;
  4. Support your covenant partner financial with $660/year (that is $55/month) to be contributed monthly, quarterly or in other increments throughout the year; and
  5. Exchange photos with your partner.

Upon receipt of your commitment card and photo, your information will be exchanged with your assigned student. Leave a legacy and strengthen the church through seminary student covenant partnership!
