Leadership Development Course Awards Diplomas in Theology

July 5, 2012 by A. Kevin Valvardi

Eight San Quentin prisoners received Christian leadership diplomas from the Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary in June graduation ceremonies featuring full academic regalia for the teachers and caps and gowns for the students.
 
“We are not just training you for when you get out, but to lead the kingdom of God where you are,” Seminary President Dr. Jeff P. Iorg told the graduates. “No matter your circumstances, find a way to advance the kingdom of God. Stay obedient, share the Gospel, teach the Bible, model the life of Jesus Christ.”
 
It was the fifth year the seminary has offered prisoners training through the Contextualized Leadership Development program.
Earning the CLD Diploma in Theology was Robert Butler. CLD Diplomas in Christian Ministries were presented to James Bennett, Ryan Crainshaw, William Dew, Darnell Hill, Anthony Parker and Dennis Pratt. Earning both diplomas was Jonathan Cope.
