The Hispanic Summer Program

ETSS is a sponsoring institution of The Hispanic Summer Program (HSP), which is an annual two-week Master's level course of study primarily for Latino/a seminarians and taught by Latino/a faculty in theological education. The program rotates to different institutions each year and is attended and taught by Latinos/as of several denominations. As an ecumenical and pan-ethnic body, the Hispanic Summer Program is sponsored by 34 educational institutions of several denominations throughout the country and Puerto Rico. The HSP provides several courses in English and several in Spanish.

Latino/a students at ETSS and non-Latinos/as who have a demonstrated commitment to Hispanic ministry are eligible to participate in the program.

ETSS students desiring to attend the Hispanic Summer Program need to take the Greek course in the spring so they can have the summer available for the Hispanic Summer Program course.
