Fellows Program

Candidate Dashboard

Every year, Grace Bible Church in College Station graduates approximately twenty people from its Fellows Program. This program, a two-year intensive development opportunity for college graduates, focuses on four main areas: teaching truth, forming character, experiencing ministry and sharpening a vision for full-time service. Each Fellow chooses a specific ministry focus (Childrens, Youth, College, Youth Impact, Global Outreach, Worship, Production, Media, Junction: Young Adults, or Legacy: Greek Ministries). The program also includes an academically rigorous theological education, and many Fellows receive credit through Dallas Theological Seminary.

Our desire is to see our Fellows Program graduates fulfill their calling by finding placement in a church setting that will continue to develop their ministry foundation. We have listed our graduating Fellows for this coming year, all of whom will be finishing in mid-July. Please feel free to contact them directly to engage their experience and interest. For letters of reference, please reach out to fellowsprogram@grace-bible.org.
