Greetings from the Boston College School of Theology and Ministry!
 
It is a great pleasure and privilege to present the 2019 Resume Book from the Boston College School of Theology and Ministry. This book features in alphabetical order the resumes of thirty-seven prospective graduates who hope to offer their knowledge, skills, and enthusiasm in service to the church and faith-based institutions.  A table of contents provides a brief description of the master’s degree programs offered at the STM with a listing of students in each program. Students in our M.Div., M.A.T.M., and dual-degree programs have had extensive supervised training in either pastoral ministry or teaching. They have also fulfilled degree requirements for spiritual formation.  M.T.S. students have taken advantage of opportunities for spiritual and personal development and possess a wide breadth of theological knowledge. Some students have provided specific preferences for employment; however, most students wish to be considered for a variety of positions in ministry and education. We have also included an index of students listed by placement interest and regional preference.
 
We would appreciate your help in circulating this packet internally among colleagues who are seeking faith-filled, learned, and competent lay ecclesial ministers, teachers and administrators of the highest caliber.  Please contact students directly if you are interested in talking with them about employment opportunities. In addition, we invite you to post job notices on the STM Website www.bc.stm free of charge by sending notices to jacqueline.regan.2@bc.edu. We look forward to hearing from you in the future.
 
Sincerely,
Jacqueline McNiff Regan                                                            Barbara Quinn, RSCJ
