Covenant Fellows Program

The purpose of the Covenant Fellows Program is to give students called to Christian ministry personal and professional support as they further their undergraduate development into competent and holistically educated ministers/professors/missionaries.

HCU covenants with our students and with local churches to provide educational and professional experiences that will prove beneficial to both those studying in the program and those churches supporting and employing our ministerial students.

Ministry Preparation

Each member of the program will take part in multiple ministry growth and preparation opportunities:

  • Cadre Sessions

    Cadre Sessions will be monthly gatherings of individuals in the program with a local minister, academic, and/or successful Christian layman to discuss the needs, trials, joys, and processes of full-time vocational ministry.

    These events will be structured around particular topics and situations relating to ministerial calling and vocation.

  • Mentoring Relationships

    Mentors from HCU, including alumni in ministry, area ministers, and other professionals, will hold monthly or bi-monthly mentorship meetings with individual students to discuss their experiences and lessons learned in the program as well as continue to network with local ministries and churches.

    Both the cadre and mentoring sessions will work for the benefit of the student and the local church.

  • Ministry Internships

    All students in the program will be placed in an internship by at least their junior year (CF 3). These internships will take part in local churches and/or parachurch ministries.

    Students will have the opportunity to experience and serve in the vocational life of a ministry which will support and further ties between HCU and the local community.

    End of semester evaluations will take place between the student, internship site, and HCU to further improve and learn from the internship experience.
