Anglican Theological Institute of Bermuda Moodle

In 2017, the Bishop of Bermuda sought to instigate a programme of Training for Ministry for the Anglican Theological Institute of Bermuda that followed the best practice recognised around the Anglican Communion.

Through the appointment of a Director of Training and Discipleship, and the formation of an Affiliation Agreement with St Mellitus College, London (UK), The Anglican Church of Bermuda has developed courses of Theologcal Education and Formation as preparation for Licensed Lay Ministry and Ordination.

The programme is open to:

• Bermuda residents who, having been through a diocesan process of discernment, have been recommended and sent by the bishop* for Training for Licensed Lay Ministry or Training for Ordination

• Bermuda residents whose ministry has been recognised by their Parish*, supported by their Incumbent* and Vestry*, wish to enrich and deepen their Lay Ministry in the parish (this may include ministries such as Sunday School Leader, Bible Study Leader, Worship Leader, Pastoral Visitor, Parish Evangelist etc.)

• Bermuda residents who wish to deepen their knowledge of our Christian Faith, gain greater confidence in the Scriptures, and grow as a disciple of Jesus

* Christians of all denominations are welcomed on ATIB courses, and we value our tradition of training alongside Christians of all traditions.  For formal and recognised ministries, each denomination will have its own processes and these should first be discussed with the local church, and then with the Course Director to ensure ecumenical students get the best experience of training for ministry.
