St. MAE will offer both Fast Track and more traditional time frame courses of study as they become available.
CURRENTLY AVAILABLE
The St. MAE Fast Track program is now complete. Students will take ten courses per degree as follows:
- Associate of Christianity
- Bachelor of Christian Bible (Chaplain's Course)
- Master of Theology
- Doctor of Divinity
OBJECTIVE
The objective of the fast track program is to rapidly and effectively prepare the student for ministry, for missions, for church building, for pastoral leadership and for church planting.
TARGET
Students of all Christian denominations may participate. The atmosphere is one of ecumenical dialog hosted by an Orthodox Christian jurisdiction in an atmosphere of academic freedom and mutual tolerance and respect.
ORDINATIONS
From the standpoint of authority and authorization, with respect to ordinations St. Michael Academy is under the jurisdiction of the Ukrainian National Autocephalous Orthodox Church in Exile. The first among equals of our bishops is the Metropolitan Archbishop Haralambos. The UNAOCIE is a founding member of SCOBA, through Bishop Ilnysky, the Metropolitan's consecrating line. It was granted autocephaly through the Patriarch Gregorios VIIof Constantinople in his tomos of 1924. This allows our bishops to ordain Orthodox priests and bishops who wish to minister and start churches within our own jurisdiction, (which is worldwide). We also provide training and preparation for ordination for Christians of other jurisdictions. If the student intends to be ordained outside of the UNAOCIE we suggest discussing seminary attendance with the proposed ordaining authorities. UNAOCIEINEXILE is our old website. Our newest website is www.pangreek-ukrainianorthodoxarchdioceses.org.
