Go beyond expectations in the ministry to which God calls you. “What we shall be is yet to be revealed” (1 John 3.2).

St Augustine’s College of Theology is the Church of England’s longest-standing non-residential theological college. We prepare men and women for ordained and licensed ministry, and provide theological education for those pursuing academic study of Christian faith and practice. Today, we have become a leading choice for both part-time and full-time students.

Our mission is to meet the Church’s need for resourceful, innovative ministry, informed by theological insight and by the wisdom essential for leadership.

We live in an age of mission, a mission that has comehome to our own streets and neighbourhoods. Thisrequires lay and ordained ministry that is diverselyskilled, faithful in prayer, quick to serve, nimble inresponding to change, intellectually curious, hopeful ina difficult world, eager and imaginative in preaching thegospel, and, above all, passionately in love with God.At St Augustine’s, we believe that this is exactly thekind of ministry to which God is calling the Church.

“It’s a great preparation for the future, with the knowledge and

understanding we receive underpinning the practical experience we receive in

our own churches and in placements. I’d say the course is for everyone, whatever your background or Christian tradition.”

David McEvoy

“Studying with St Augustine’s has been an amazing experience. Despite having the pressures of a full time job whilst studying, the college has been able to accommodate this, providing top level training. There is a healthy diversity among both the staff and students which provides an excellent environment in which to be trained for ministry in the Church of England.”Alex Norris


Ordained Ministry


From the PrincipalLearning about our Christian faith changes us; learning to live that faith as the form of Christ in the world changes both us and the world. The first is theology, the second, ministry, and they belong together.

At St Augustine’s College of Theology, we’ve been providing non-residential theological education since 1959. Our community, dispersed across the South East, equips our students for the practical knowledge of God, the knowledge that changes things and makes its mark on us and those we serve.

Whether our students prepare for ordained ministry or for licensed layministry, engage with theology as part of a process of vocationaldiscernment, or to inform their Christian discipleship, each one learns to develop their understanding of Christian faith and practice in constant interaction with the contexts of daily life and local Churchwitness. We provide formation that is transforming, that promotespersonal, intellectual, and spiritual change, so that together we might“grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ” (Eph.4.15).

As a student here, you will discover, too, a common life in which your learning is encouraged and supported, so that the changes it brings and the challenges it poses gladden the heart and move the will. The truth is that God grants us more than we expect of ourselves, and inspires us with hope for the world He loves. As the first epistle of John puts it: since our lives are held in the gracious mystery of God, “what we shall be is yet to be revealed” (1 John 3.2).

From this prospectus, you’ll learn a good deal about formation here. Not everything - there is no substitute for talking to us and visiting us as you make your decision. That is important; despite our using electronic classrooms, having a virtual learning environment, communicating electronically much of the time, and live-streaming some of our classes, the fundamentals of formation at St Augustine’s depend upon human relationships, relationships nourished within the Body of Christ, relationships for which there is no technological substitute. So, when you’ve finished reading, please call us with your questions, book a visit, chat with members of staff and current students, and come to an open event or a 'taster Friday', details of which are on our website.

I hope you will choose St Augustine’s as the community in which toexceed your expectations as you begin the learning and formation towhich God is calling you.

God bless.

Ordained Ministry

Providing contextual formation since 1959Our origins lie in an unusually brilliant idea that sparked between a pair of episcopal ears when, in 1959, the Bishop of Southwark took the controversial step of devising a wholly new pattern for ministerial formation. Students would no longer leave their daily lives and their working communities to live in colleges that were still echoes, if distant ones, of monastic communities. Rather, they would study theology and learn the practices of ministry whilst remaining productively embedded in their local contexts. The Southwark Ordination Course helped students make vital connections between learning and ministry, theology and practice, from the very beginning of ministerial education. From 1994 onwards, SEITE (a merger of the Southwark Ordination Course with the Canterbury School of Ministry) served the dioceses of South East England through the ministerial formation of men and women for both licensed lay and ordained ministry. Twenty years on, and SEITE had responded to the challenges of change and now welcomed students from other denominations, students training for licensed lay ministry, and those simply studying theology. The Church of England introduced ‘Common Awards’ in 2014, providing a set of qualifications from Certificate level to Masters, accredited by the University of Durham. All our students now study for these Common Awards qualifications. Also under the provisions of this scheme, we began to work in partnership with the dioceses of Canterbury, Chichester, and Rochester, to provide accredited continuing education to curates during the first four years following their ordination. In 2016, we changed our name to the more memorable and easily pronounced ‘St Augustine’s’ and, with the move of our main offices to Malling Abbey, began the latest stage in our history. Though the life of the college has changed greatly over its almost 60 year history, we continue to believe that non-residential pathways of formation provide an unparalleled opportunity to prepare for the challenges of ministry in a complex, changing society. Students grow in maturity, think most creatively, and learn most richly as they continue to negotiate the shifts and tensions of the ongoing responsibilities of family, local church, and neighbourhood, and, for our part-time students, of their paid employment, profession, or business. Our guiding vision is to form robust lives of ministry, reflection, and prayer within the many demands of daily life. A word about our name We have adopted the name of Southern England's missionary saint. St Augustine landed on the Isle of Thanet in 597, and, having evangelized the Saxon people of Kent, became the first Archbishop of Canterbury. His careful attention, under the guidance of Pope Gregory the Great, to what we would now call missional respect for cultural context, is a very worthy inspiration.

Where can I study?We have two main teaching centres: at Malling Abbey, in mid-Kent, and at Trinity House, Southwark, very close to London Bridge station and Borough High Street. If you choose to study part-time and attend evening classes you’ll be able to choose to come to either Malling Abbey or Trinity House. Students studying part or full-time via the teaching day programme, attend their classes at Malling Abbey.

Malling Abbey, Kent

Malling Abbey is home to our administrative offices and our mainlibrary. We hold evening classes and teaching days here, enjoyingstate of the art classrooms, areas for refreshment and conversation,and the 14th century Pilgrim chapel for our worship. You can bookstudy rooms for use during the day and all students are welcomethroughout the week, whether or not you take your classes atMalling. You are also invited to come for day retreats, quiet times ofprayer, or to walk the labyrinth.

The Benedictine sisters also welcome us to the guest chapel in orderto participate in their regular round of daily worship. The communitychapel is a modernist Grade II* building that evokes the simplicityand enduring strength of the Benedictine way of life.

Trinity House, Southwark

Many of our students choose to study at Trinity House, either for convenience or because they prefer to study in a city environment. Trinity House offers excellent classrooms and houses another library collection, as well as providing some study space.

the opportunity to study theology in such a

supportive environment has definitely been

formational.”Tim Carroll

“I have found studying at St Augustine’s College to be horizon expanding, enriching to my faith and deepening my understanding of mission and theology for normal people! Meeting with like-minded, yet totally different people has been a great joy and has given me insights into the depth of God’s love and creative power in salvation.”Gordon MacBean



Ordained Ministry4

The Ordained Ministry PathwayThe Ordained Ministry pathway is primarily for those who have been recommended for training by the Church of England.

Our programme for ordained ministry involves you in theological learning that:

• unites biblical witness and the traditions of faith with contemporary life; • insists on contextual reflection, enabling us to discern God’s call in the times and places of our work; and• fosters a personal formation that engages your prayer and deepens your trust in God’s love, strengthening you to minister that love to others.

All Ordained Ministry students study for a qualification in Theology, Mission, and Ministry, accredited by the University of Durham as part of the Church of England’s Common Awards. The particular qualification awarded depends on the length of your programme and whether you have recently undertaken accredited study in Theology or a related subject.

• Diploma of Higher Education (DipHE) in Theology, Ministry, and Mission• BA in Theology, Ministry, and Mission• Graduate Diploma (GDip) in Theology, Ministry and Mission• MA in Theology, Ministry, and Mission

Programme duration

You can choose from:

• Part-time study for three years• Full-time study for two or three years• Full-time mixed-mode study for two or three years

A choice of locations and study modes to suit you

Ordained Ministry students can choose to study either part or full-time at our teaching centres at Malling Abbey and/or at Trinity House, Southwark. Most modules are taken with students on other pathways. Part-time students complete these ‘shared modules’ either at one evening class a week (Mondays at Trinity House or Wednesdays at Malling Abbey) or by attending a teaching day every other Friday at Malling Abbey. Full-time students take either one evening class each week and a teaching day every other week, or teaching days every week. All students also attend a one day Saturday school each year, either in Southwark or Malling. For term dates, see the calendar.

Each year, you will also attend six residential weekends and a week-long residential school in Canterbury.

Residential weekends

Residential weekends are held at various locations in Kent, including Malling Abbey, Ashburnham Place, near Battle, and The Friars, Aylesford.

Annual residential week

For the annual residential week, we stay at the King’s School,Canterbury and hold our daily worship in Canterbury Cathedral.

“St Augustine’s is a place where I am discovering who I really am and who God wants me to be.”Jeanette Kennett

“I had not expected the staff to be so supportive and kind – everyone does all they can to get you to where you need to be – nor did I expect to make such good friends. We’re a varied bunch of students and learn so much from each other’s encouragement. I chose a two-year course and wish I’d chosen three – I shall miss studying here very much.”Alice Bates


Ordained Ministry6

Practical experienceOur programmes prepare you for flexible deployment, enabling you to flourish in diverse social, economic and ecclesial contexts. Reflective, spiritually mature, prayerful and energetic, our graduates have the readiness necessary for ministries that embody, teach, and communicate the gospel of Christ within the varied forms of parochial and pioneer mission.

You’ll undertake placements and projects designed to extend your experience of the Church’s mission, develop your skills in pastoral care and in communication, discover the opportunities and complexities of the Church’s public role, and place you in contexts designed to stimulate theological reflection.

Mission placements

During your first term, you’ll undertake a mission placement with a small group of 3-4 students. The parishes chosen for these placements provide excellent models of contemporary missional initiative.

Pastoral placements

Students undertake pastoral placements, mainly in hospitals, prisons,and other chaplaincy contexts. You'll be guided by highlyskilled and experienced supervisors who will also help youto reflect theologically upon your work.

Church placements

Your church placement is generally in a church significantly different from your ‘home’ parish. For example, a city-based student might do their placement in a rural parish or an Anglo-Catholic in an Evangelical church.

Student reflections on placements

Your placements are an important element of your training as an Ordinand, to enable you to put the theory you’ve learned into practice in context. I’ve been based three days a week at mine, involving quite a bit of juggling of home, study and placement. Working in that context, you really start to feel part of the church and fully immersed in all the activities going on!

I’ve got involved in everything; from leading morning prayer to funerals to lunch clubs and coffee mornings. Delivering my first sermon, to over 100 people, was unbelievably nerve-wracking, but a wonderful feeling evangelising. And in a far more intimate example, I did my first Holy Communion visit recently, visiting a couple in their home, which was incredibly moving. People want to be able to stay connected to their church and their faith, especially in difficult circumstances, and it’s beautiful, and such an honour, to be able to be involved with helping them do that.

In my professional life, I’m a barrister. I mostly prosecute serious crime, and many people involved in the cases I deal with have been through deeply traumatic experiences. So there’s an element of pastoral crossover between my current professional role and ministry.

My recent placement was a fully immersive week in hospital chaplaincy, talking to people and helping with ward communions. It was tough, tiring and emotionally demanding, and I loved it.

I was fully involved with ‘doing’, not just observing, so it was an intensive learning experience. I was part of a very small team, so I was sometimes the person on the spot, with the responsibility for dealing with people’s issues as they arose. It was terrifying. But as an experience of real ministry, it was very powerful and I felt that I really grew. For me, it helped me to deal with my nervousness of dealing directly with people in distress.

As a barrister, I deal with people in distress, too. The court process itself can be very traumatic, as can re-living experiences after the event. But it’s a different situation, and the court environment dictates what you can do. In hospital, you are dealing directly with people’s emotions in the raw, as things happen. Both situations are quite reactive, so it’s very different from the long-term position in a church community. It is all about what you can do there and then.

Ordained Ministry 7


For your placements, you’re expected to work in a church where the worship style, culture and outreach are different to your own. My local church in Guernsey is in a rural, agricultural community, so I joined the pastoral ministry team in a busy, urban church. In my professional life, I’m an interpreter and ESOL teacher, so naturally I love language, communication and people, and being able to participate in what was called ‘cruise ship ministry’ was an immense privilege. We have many hundreds of people from all over the world coming through our church doors, and they come for many different reasons. I met young people from the USA who were seeking the atmosphere our ancient church building created by generations of worshippers, as well as people from all over Europe, Asia and Africa, of many different faiths. But some people on cruises are there because they are lonely or bereaved, and are just looking for someone to talk to. We gave them a safe space to talk, and were there to listen. Being part of this ‘living witness’ was a profound experience for me.

One of your placements requires you to move to a new church for eight weeks, with a different tradition, so that you gain a broader experience of Church of England practices and contexts.

My usual church is Evangelical, and Southwark Diocese also requires Ordinands to move to a church of a different tradition whilst they are training. I moved to a church with a high Anglo-Catholic tradition, and my family came too. (My eldest son found the move particularly hard, but confessed he couldn’t stand the endless singing at our old church!) Changing traditions really makes you think about WHY you worship rather than focusing on the WAY that you worship. One of the things it has shown me is how much it is the people who make the church.

My eight-week placement was in an affluent area – very different from where I have always lived and worked. They were welcoming, but it was totally unlike anything I was used to. I found that the clergy were more like managers, and were very good at allocating tasks to people in church. I learned how institutionalised the church can be, and how much it can become about pleasing the people in a particular parish, rather than listening to what God wants. For example, if some people are very keen on running concerts in the church, are very vocal about it and have the money and skills, they can drive what happens. It seemed that there were people interested in music and the church choir, and they were the only people really getting involved, so only their voices were really heard, and pastoral support was less important.

I suggested we try to get more people across the community involved, as this experience strengthened my conviction that, as a church, we should all work collaboratively to engage people. Wherever we work, we need to understand the context and avoid hanging on to fixed ideas. We need to keep thinking about why we do what we do. If we’ve been doing the same thing for years and years, is it still the right thing now? And, most importantly, what does God want us to do? It’s easy, and natural for us to want to be successful. Harder, but vital, is to prayerfully ask God what is needed here, and have the courage to follow, however the Spirit leads.


Ordained Ministry8

What will I study?Your course will be comprised of a series of modules that cover the range of theological and ministerial fields. Here are just a few examples that cover some key areas; for a more complete list, please see our website: www.staugustinescollege.ac.uk

Introduction to Biblical studies

This module introduces you to the contemporary study of Scripture. You learn how to use the major critical tools that scholars employ to interpret the Bible. You will study how these critical techniques have developed and so understand the story of modern biblical criticism. In this way, the module introduces you to the most important issues raised for Christian life and worship by the study of Scripture.

Introduction to Spirituality and discipleship

This module puts spirituality at the heart of your study of theology, integrating that study with the life of discipleship. You will examine the place of prayer and repentance, of contemplation and ‘bearing the cross’, of ‘detachment’ and pilgrimage, both literal and metaphorical. The module also looks in detail at some of the most important scriptural and doctrinal sources for Christian prayer and spirituality. Along with all this, you shall choose and undertake a set of spiritual practices that will help stretch your soul.

Introduction to Church history

In this module, you will study key periods in the history of Christianity, paying special attention to the development of a major doctrine, such as the doctrine of the Trinity. The course will help you appreciate the dynamics of continuity and change within Christian history and also the importance and recurrence of renewal across different contexts of geography and culture.

Introduction to Christian doctrine

This module examines central Christian theological affirmations about the person and work of Jesus Christ (Christology and soteriology) and considers what follows for Christian life and practice. It introduces you to theological debates about the person and work of Jesus Christ down the centuries and explores some of the implications of these for the Church’s mission.

Foundations in Christian worship

In this module, you shall consider daily, weekly and yearly patterns of worship in the Christian churches today. By way of a local history project, historical study will complement your exploration of the contemporary diversity of these patterns. You shall also visit a variety of churches to grasp something of this at first hand. Examining the way Christians shape and mark time through their worship, this module concentrates on the vital relationship between past traditions and present realities.

Old Testament studies

This module gives you a broad overview of salvation history, that is, the history of the covenant people in its relationship with God, as portrayed in the narrative of the Old Testament. It will also extend and develop the range of critical skills you use to interpret Scripture and link these skills to the roles of scripture within the Christian community. As the vehicle for achieving this, you shall analyse specific biblical texts related to the themes of creation and covenant.

New Testament studies

In this module you shall study the mission and ministry of Jesus in the Gospels, as well as the early Christians’ experience of the risen Christ and of the Holy Spirit. You shall pay particular attention to Luke-Acts and to Paul’s epistles, especially Romans. You shall examine how Jesus drew on the theology of contemporary Judaism and reshaped it. The module explores the experiences and concerns of the earliest Christian communities and discusses how the beginnings of Christian faith continue to shape the ministry and mission of the Church today.

Christian faith and ethical living

This module addresses the foundations of Christian ethical reasoning, offering a theological account of core Christian moral concepts. You shall discuss their application to issues currently subject to sharp controversy within and outside the Church: sexual ethics, family life, distributive justice and poverty, and Christian participation in public life.

Christian doctrine in focus

This module focuses on the Christian doctrines of Trinity, creation, and the person and work of Jesus Christ. You shall study modern and post-modern critiques of these doctrines and examine constructive and influential responses, including Radical Orthodoxy and postliberal approaches.

Texts and traditions in Christian spirituality

In this module you shall study a range of voices from the Christian spiritual tradition, entering into a conversation with influential texts using both theological and secular disciplines. You will learn academic approaches to spirituality as well as reflect the formative challenges and inspirations found in some of the classic treatments of Christian prayer and mysticism.

Dissertation in theology, ministry and mission

This provides you with the opportunity to research a topic of particular interest to you and, under tutorial supervision, present your work in the form of a long essay.

At residential weekends, you’ll undertake the following pathway specific modules:

Ministry and mission in context

This module explores the relationship between mission and the diversity of contexts within which the contemporary Church serves and witnesses. You will reflect upon the theology of the mission of God as well as contemporary practices of outreach in the Christian churches, including Fresh Expressions of Church. The placement element of this module involves an extended team mission project.

Pastoral care

In this module, you will learn the theory and develop some of the skills for effective Christian pastoral ministry. You will reflect on the various settings for pastoral ministry and also upon the discernment and sensitivities they require. The module also examines the relationship between pastoral care and mission, sexuality and marriage, and bereavement ministry and funerals. The placement element of this module is an extended placement in pastoral ministry.

Ministry and worship in context

You will examine three core areas of congregational ministry: leading worship, preaching, and Christian nurture and education. The module emphasises developing your facility in reflective practice as crucial to leading and enabling worship and discipleship in local churches. The placement element of this module enlarges your experience of ministry in these areas by work in a church that differs in some key respects from those with which you are most familiar.

Support with writing and composition

Our students bring a diversity of experience and skills with them. You may have studied at degree level or higher, several decades ago, have more recent academic experience, or have none at all.

For some of our students, academic study promises excitement and interest. Many of them, though, appreciate guidance on the particular challenges of writing assignments in theology. For some students, past experience makes the whole idea of study, especially writing papers and completing assignments, feel daunting. At St Augustine’s, we value the range of educational experiences you bring, and provide a corresponding range of support from guidance on specific issues to in-depth coaching. If you have any concerns, please contact Suzy Gregory, our tutor in Writing, Study Skills, and Singing.

How much study time is involved each week?

Full-time (including mixed-mode)

Full-time students typically attend a teaching day every Friday. Alternatively they may attend two evening classes per week, or a combination of evenings and teaching days. They take one or two modules each term in Biblical Studies, Christian Doctrine, Church History, Ethics, Worship and Liturgy and Pastoral Theology. A module typically involves two written assignments. Full-time students also undertake a parish placement on Sundays and at least one other day during the week. They also attend regular seminars during term term, and will undertake at least two days of study per week.

Full time study involves at least 40 hours of activity or study overall each week.

Part-time

Part-time students attend either an evening class each week or a teaching day every other Friday. They take one module per term in the above subject areas. A module typically involves two written assignments. Part-time students also have a Sunday placement in their home or local parish.

Part-time study also requires at least 10 hours of study per week, outside class time.

Formation and study in a busy life

We recognise that every one of our students has commitments outside the College – many of you will have families, and part-time students may be working either full or part-time. We wish to support you in meeting the demands of life whilst you study with us.

Please ask, if you have questions as to ‘study/work/life’ balance.

For part-time students, especially, our course structures arespecifically designed to fit alongside your existing commitments.We also welcome families at various events designed to help themunderstand your programme.

Ordination and beyondAfter your Ordination as a deacon, the next part of your training, and your formation as a minister, is working as a curate - usually for around four years. How your curacy is arranged varies depending on your diocese, but you can expect that, during the first term of your final year, your DDO will be in contact to discuss this with you. We will also give you any support and advice you need.

Curacy (IME Phase 2 Training)

Curates in all dioceses follow a programme of post-ordination training (IME Phase 2). For most curates in the dioceses of Rochester, Chichester and Canterbury this involves continued accredited study with St Augustine’s, typically leading to a BA(Hons) or a postgraduate qualification. Other dioceses in the region deliver their own, non-accredited curacy programmes.

Further study

There are grants and opportunities available for priests to continue training and studying. Should you choose to continue your studies, our MA in Theology, Ministry and Mission is a specially tailored programme of theological learning and research that allows lay and ordained ministers, as well as church members, to deepen their theological knowledge by building on previous theological learning while engaging with daily life and ongoing experience of the Body of Christ.

Alumni

Alumni of St Augustine’s College of Theology (including those from the Southwark Ordination Course and South East Institute for Theological Education) are active in all branches of the Church and in many other walks of life. We encourage all our Alumni to join “The Friends of St Augustine’s,” an association that keeps you in touch with college life, holds regular alumni focused events, offers continuing access to our libraries, discounts on further education and on our workshops, and raises money for the college. Our alumni have always a significant role in recommending the college and in encouraging prospective students to join us. We hope that you will continue this very happy tradition.

Fees and financeIf you are accepted as an Ordinand, your fees will be paid directly to St Augustine’s College of Theology by your sponsoring diocese. This will cover all your training, teaching sessions and attendance at all residential events.

Church of England ordinands may claim reimbursement of travel costs from their diocese, which also provides a small book grant.

Ordained Ministry Prospectus 16pp (SPREADS b-c+f-c) 1st ......At St Augustine’s College of Theology, we’ve been providing non-residential theological education since 1959. Our
