Students will be encouraged to identify and craft their testimony as part of their witness.

Our Learning Arch

In the first year of Brethren Academy arch , we explore aspects of Identity within two key areas. First, we will discover and identify who we are in Christ. Next, we will discover who we are uniquely captured to be within our Brethren identity. Through these lenses, students will work to identify who they are uniquely positioned to be and answer for themselves, “Who am I?”

In the second year of Brethren Academy arch, we explore aspects of Calling within two key areas. First, we will learn to listen and identify God’s voice. Next, we will learn to trust God’s message. Through these means, students will work to recognize and act upon His call for their lives by answering the question, “What is my calling?”

In the third year of the Brethren Academy arch, we will explore aspects of Witness within two key areas. First, we will examine methods of crafting your personal story. Next, we will discover the people group we are a part of. With these in mind, students will work to answer the question, “What is my witness to my people?”

Mentors

Have you considered being a mentor for Brethren Academy? Mentors are a vital part of the Brethren Academy experience. We’d love for you to consider partnering with us as a mentor and walking alongside Brethren Academy students as they discover their calling in Christ.

Mentors are undergrad students and youth leaders who are faith-filled, outgoing, and fun individuals with a desire to walk alongside academy students during their time together and after students return home.

If you are interested in being considered for a mentor position, please apply by September 15, 2024.
