The License to Preach school enables certified candidates to complete the educational requirements for being licensed for pastoral ministry.  The Spring 2024 semester will be in an online format with learning content and instruction hosted and delivered by the Candler School of Theology (Emory University). Facilitators and graders for small groups and class assignments will be from the Indiana Conference. Attendance at the onsite orientation at the University of Indianapolis and participation in online small groups during the semester is required.
