Master of Theological Studies – Franciscan Theology

Are there opportunities for spiritual formation or community?

Yes, the MTS-FT program emphasizes spiritual formation as an integral part of theological study. The program’s Franciscan Catholic foundation encourages students to engage deeply with their faith, integrate spiritual reflection into their academic work, and participate in a community of faith.

Students are encouraged to join online discussions, virtual prayer groups, and community-building activities that connect them with peers, alumni, and faculty members. On this page, you can explore resources on topics such as spiritual direction, deepening your faith, and integrating faith into professional life through articles, videos, and the MTS-FT blog.

The Director of Student Services and Spiritual Formation is also available to guide students in their personal spiritual development. Connect with them here.
