If you're curious about theology, seeking to deepen your faith, exploring ministry opportunities, or considering professional development, St Francis Theological College Open Day is a great opportunity to explore theological education in the Anglican tradition.
Discover flexible study options offered online and on campus in Brisbane, meet our faculty and current students, and learn about scholarships, support, and study pathways in theological and ministry studies. Ask questions about subjects including Biblical Studies, Church History, Mission and Ministry, and Anglican Studies, while enjoying refreshments and conversation.
Whether you join us in person at St Francis College, Brisbane, or online from across Queensland, or beyond, you’ll encounter a learning community committed to thoughtful engagement with Scripture, grounded in Anglican tradition, and forming leaders for service in the Church and wider society.
Come with questions. Leave with possibilities.
Please note that if you are attending online, you will be sent an email with instructions on how to join on day before the event.
