The 2024-2025 academic year at Jerusalem Seminary is off to a fantastic start. This semester JS welcomes 62 students from 21 different countries including the US, Canada, Germany, The UK, Tanzania, South Korea, and Thailand — along with other countries in Asia, the Americas, Europe, and Africa. We praise the Lord for our largest semester enrollment to date!

Last week we met in the heart of Jerusalem at Thompson Chapel and via livestream to inaugurate the academic year with wonderful fellowship, food, worship, encouragement, and prayer. This year’s convocation revolved around a very special announcement:

We are launching a brand new Master of Arts in Biblical Studies degree starting in Fall 2025!

Join us in the spirit of prayer sparked by the convocation and pray with us for God to call students, to give strength and wisdom to our faculty and staff, and grace for all the details to come together for the new graduate program to serve God’s Kingdom.
