June 17, 2021 By Fr. John Peck [edit]

On the heels of our Missions Development Conference, Metropolitan Jonah wanted to be sure we were all aware that he will be teaching a course on what we are doing and discussins – Planting and Starting New Orthodox Missions.  The summer session runs from June 21 to August 7.

The Pastoral School of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia’s Diocese of Chicago and Mid-America is also offering several other courses during its summer semester that are open to the general public.

The classes offered this summer are:

  • Liturgics

  • Thesis Writing Workshop
  • New Testament Greek
  • New Testament Latin
  • The Pivotal Points in the History of Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia, and 
  • Planting and Starting a New Mission

All summer courses are available to the general public without having to apply to the complete Diploma program. 

The summer semester starts next week, so click here to apply now!
