About the Elder Academy

The Elder Academy is a learning community that helps elders grow spiritually and develop their leadership in the love of Christ.

The Elder Academy began from a shared recognition that, after ordination, elders need education and training to strengthen their spirituality and theological understanding,
a place to understand and share Onnuri Church's new ministry vision,
and stronger fellowship and
partnership among elders of different ordination classes for the sake of united ministry.

Academic Policies

  • A certificate of completion is issued to elders who meet the completion requirements.
  • Those who do not complete a given class may complete it in the next class by retaking only the lectures they missed.
  • This is currently a course for Onnuri Church elders only, and it will be developed into open lectures that include elders from other churches in the future.
