In 2007 the Association for Biblical Higher Education (ABHE)
approved a new agreement between Horizon College and
Seminary and Providence Theological Seminary in Otterburne,
Manitoba. This agreement created a Pentecostal Studies track
within Providence’s Master of Divinity program.
To oversee the M.Div. Pentecostal Studies Track,
Horizon College and Seminary established an administrative
arm called Horizon Pentecostal Seminary. The Board
of Governors of Horizon appointed Dr. Ron Kadyschuk, long-term
faculty member and former President of the college, to be
the Dean of this seminary division.
The Master of Divinity Pentecostal Studies Track offered
by Horizon Pentecostal Seminary and Providence Theological
Seminary provides a fine opportunity for men and women who
worship and minister in Pentecostal settings. They are able
to take graduate-level education and training with Pentecostal
perspectives but without undue travel from their places
of employment and ministry.
Contact Dr. Kadyschuk at
rkadyschuk@horizon.edu
for more information about the program.
