The Keystone Academy for Ministry was created in 1969 to provide leadership training to those who desired to serve small churches around the conference. All courses are hybrid, which means in person and on Zoom, centered in Greensburg, PA. The four year cycle of courses includes: Church History, Worship and Preaching, Old Testament, New Testament, UCC Covenant and Polity, and Theology & Spirituality. We also offer every year a special block course that deals with issues of particular interest in ministry such as: popular culture, picking hymns, pastoral care, practical theology, and church administration.
