About Us
The Office of Vocation and Leadership at YDS is here to encourage, support and empower every student to connect their theological study with their sense of vocation and the work of their lives. We offer a wide range of opportunities and contexts for connecting belief with action within a supportive and challenging community, as students test out what their theology leads them to do and to be in the world. We focus particularly on contextual experiences that offer exposure to a wide range of economic, racial and social realities, in traditional congregational and chaplaincy settings and in non-profit models for service and action. Grounded in their academic work, students explore their calling and aspirations, and have the space to develop a vision for a vocation that has meaning in their lives.
