Theological Education
facilitating strategic partnerships .
In 2020 , 8 TE team members worked with 27 schools across 14 countries to teach intensive courses , give consultations , mentor and coach leaders , provide needs assessments and training opportunities , serve as board members , and cultivate partnerships . TE celebrated 1,341 graduates from 36 schools .
During this year , Dr . Guenson Charlot ( pictured ), the newly appointed president of Emmaus University in Haiti , embraced mentoring as a holistic approach to becoming a better servant to one ’ s calling , society , and disciples . To make this a reality , he accepted an invitation from OMS missionary Dr . Ron Freeman , part of the TE team , to enter an intentional two-year mentoring relationship . They have discussed ongoing institutional matters such as organizational structure , funding , and facilities and have processed personal topics such as the grief that comes with the death of family , friends , and colleagues . Together , they are learning that mentoring is a covenantal , beneficial approach to life and leadership .
