Recruitment for the 1st Class Students - Good News Theological Seminary Europe

Throughout the year 2025, God has accomplished a great history of the gospel in Europe through the Easter Concert, the Tabernacle Tour, and the Christmas Musical Tour. In particular, through the Christmas Musical Europe Tour currently taking place in November–December, God has allowed us the opportunity to preach the gospel of eternal redemption to 25,000 citizens in about 45 cities across Europe.

As we watched citizens hear the gospel, be moved, and rejoice, we gave deep thanks.

"Don't you say, 'There are yet four months, and then comes the harvest'? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look on the fields, that they are white for harvest." (John 4:35)

We do not doubt God's will to cover Europe with the gospel in this generation through our mission. According to this will, we are opening the 1st Goodnews Theological Seminary Europe to train workers for God.

We are now recruiting the first class of European seminary students who will dedicate themselves before this glorious gospel.
