EMPOWERING LEADERS FOR
THE FIVEFOLD MINISTRY
The goal of SUM Seattle is to raise up and equip the ministry leaders of the future church. Our aim is that SUM Seattle students leave our program with the competence, education, and a foundation for ministry for the rest of their lives.
Through leadership and mentoring, our students will have access to ministry in large urban communities and inner city outreaches. They will enjoy partnering with local ministries as well as growing and developing their personal ministry calling.
SUM Bible College and Theological Seminary (SUM) equips indigenous leaders from America and the nations of the world by offering an affordable theological education combining academic instruction with practical hands-on ministry and personal mentorship. Our mission empowers these leaders to be instruments of change in their communities.
