WELCOME

FROM THE PRESIDENT

Greetings from Westminster Seminary California!

Westminster Seminary California exists to exalt Christ, proclaim His Gospel, and serve His church both locally and globally. We have witnessed the Lord’s blessings in the lives and ministries of over one-thousand graduates in our 35 years of history who faithfully serve in over twenty countries and pray for the Lord’s continued blessings on our labors.

Why consider Westminster Seminary California? We continue to believe that the church in our changing times needs learned and trained pastors and leaders. Our faculty is committed to producing pastors and leaders who stand on the inerrant Word of God as expressed in the Reformed confessions and faithfully exalt Christ as the center of the Scriptures. To that end, our curriculum focuses on the tools and skills necessary to handle the Word carefully and engage in a lifetime of learning and growing in the Word.

We also believe that learning is more effective and certainly more enjoyable within the context of a community. Hours spent together in chapels, prayer groups, and in the homes of faculty - all of whom are pastors and elders - shape and sharpen the students in their preparation to serve the church of Christ. Because of our strong belief in this community of learning, a new apartment complex is being built even as I write to encourage and foster a life of learning together.

In the end, WSC exists for the church of Jesus Christ. Our students serve in churches throughout southern California, putting to practice what they learn in class in unique and challenging ministries. Moreover, given our location as the gateway to the Pacific Rim, our students serve alongside graduates and missionaries to witness firsthand the power of the gospel in the global church.

Come and see what the Lord is doing here at Westminster Seminary California! We look forward to walking with you as the Lord prepares you for His church. May the Lord richly bless you.
