NOW ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS

Ezra Rural Ministry offers an Amharic distance Bible school in 11 locations in Ethiopia with tutoring for pastors and evangelists. Our Bible school started training ministers in 2005 in both urban and rural areas. We have trained 600 pastors in the Diploma level who have graduated, and now we are teaching 200 more. The students study each course for 35 hours at home and will take classroom classes for 10 hours, with a teacher, once a month for two years. The school offers sound Biblical and ministerial courses to equip pastors. You can take the training while you also are doing your ministry and career. It will take two years to earn a Diploma in theology.
