Our Programme
How does it work?
St. Marks Academy exists to raise up missionary leaders and our programme includes a blend of teaching, formation and placement to engage your heart, hands and head and enable you to be shaped more fully into the person - and leader - God has made you to be.
Teaching
Our programme is theologically-robust and practically-applied, and aims to develop you as a missionary leader who approaches ministry both effectively and thoughtfully. You’ll grow in faith, by receiving a good biblical and theological grounding, in leadership, by developing skills for mission and ministry, and in discipleship, by exploring resources to nurture their own character and spirituality.

Formation
You will also have a weekly Formation Group led by Jonny, our Academy Leader, where your own personal walk with God is strengthened and developed in community. Expect to go deep, find more freedom and discover your true identity!
Throughout the year you’ll also meet with a personal mentor on a monthly basis. You’ll journey into greater growth through thoughtful questions and meaningful discoveries.
Placement
Placements are a key part of your growth, where you’ll discover more of your passions and skills, and will be shaped to fulfil God’s call on your life. For more info about how placements work and what placements are available, head to the Placements page here.
