With a passion for Our Heritage, Our Future, Urshan College and Urshan Graduate School of
Theology has launched the most ambitious capital fundraising campaign in our history.
The schools are unique and strong. First we are owned and operated by the United Pentecostal
Church International and therefore committed to our Apostolic identity.
Second, UGST is accredited and UC is seeking accreditation . We can report that, as of this writing,
we are on track to meet our goal of attaining candidacy (provisional accreditation) in 2018.
Third, while partnering with our bible colleges, UC and UGST have expanded beyond the traditional
bible college model . We are offering bachelor’s degrees in Christian Ministry, Human Services,
General Education, Organizational Leadership and Music. While UGST offers Master’s Degrees in
Divinity, Theological Studies, and Christian Ministry.
This fall Urshan has a combined enrollment of 264 students. A new record!
We are positioning ourselves to be among the foremost Apostolic schools who are preparing
apostolic men and women through higher education for service in the church and around the world.
Our Heritage, Our Future is a capital campaign to raise, by God’s grace, $3.8M to preserve, restore
and expand our historic buildings, provide classroom expansion, upgrade the dorms, kitchen,
cafeteria and chapel, and expand our parking facilities and make our campus handicap accessible.
These projects are essential to meet the needs of growth and attain accreditation.
YOU, the faithful pastors, church leaders, friends, family and alumni of UC & UGST who are a part of
Our Heritage continue to be an essential part of Our Future. With God’s provision, your sustaining
prayers and faithful financial support, the best years are ahead for UC & UGST.
Please join me in supporting Our Heritage, Our Future: The Capital Campaign for UC & UGST.
