 It is our desire in the Southern New England Ministry Network to equip you for the ministry assignment that God has for you. We know there are a lot of ways to prepare for ministry. Traditionally two avenues are chosen, Bible College/Seminary or home correspondence. We are offering a third option.
The SNE Ministry Network School of Ministry is for the person who might be working a full time job, but is interested in ministry training . Setting aside one Saturday a month and doing approximately 15 hours of preparation will add skill and depth to your ministry life. If you are interested in becoming a credentialed Assemblies of God minister, these classes will meet that requirement.

Catalyst
Catalyst in the SNE Ministry Network is a combination of many things. It began when a few leaders attended the Catalyst Conference in Atlanta. Following that event, those who attended began to meet around the priority of leadership.
This concept has grown to much more then the discussion of a conference. It is now a place for SNE Ministry Network leaders to encourage, challenge and resourse each other. Every couple months a larger group gathers at the District Office for a day of 'Catalyst'. As a result of these meetings, small regional groups are beginning to meet with the same goals.
