Workshop series to address financial concerns for current and future religious leaders

As part of its commitment to holistic theological education, the Wake Forest University School of Divinity continues to expand the offerings of its Financial Well-Being for Pastoral Leaders Program, which began in the fall of 2015. The program serves current students as well as the larger community through courses offerings, peer mentoring, financial and budgeting tools, and continuing education workshops. The School of Divinity aims to create a culture that shapes the habits and skills of pastoral leaders, promoting financial well-being for themselves and the communities they serve.
