What is Africa Theological Seminary (ATS)? ATS is a non-denominational, post-secondary institution of higher learning whose founders and staff are passionately and faithfully committed to training, equipping, and empowering Christian leaders already involved in ministry. Its motto is: “Training the heart, instructing the mind, empowering the hand.” Its main campus is in Kitale, Kenya, about eight hours Northwest of Nairobi (by car). ATS is a ministry of International Christian Ministries (ICM—www.icmusa.org).
Are you supported? Yes, We are supported missionaries. Various individuals, churches, and organizations graciously give to support us. If you are interest in supporting us please contact us.
Who attends ATS? ATS operates on an in-service model so those attending are pastors or others currently involved in Christian ministry.
How does the in-service model work? Students come to ATS three times a year for five weeks at a time. During this time they will complete the intensive classroom portion of three courses, each course lasts ten days. The students then return to ministry for three months. While the students are away from ATS they complete the fieldwork portion of their courses, which is designed to help students incorporate what they learned in class into their ministry.
