Over 60 years of training and preparing Christian Ministers

Methodist Theological School has been in existence since 1954. Owing to the pressing needs for local church leadership, the political and economic conditions, and the vision of developing the churches and missions in this millennium, the idea of starting afresh a proper theological education was formed in the minds of church leaders in 1989.
