Yes! Your contribution can still be specifically designated to Northeastern Seminary.
The Circle
As the Seminary has now merged with Roberts Wesleyan University, we are excited to share that Northeastern Circle and Roberts Circle have been combined to create The Circle. While our name and logo have changed, please rest assured that your contributions designated to the Seminary will continue to support our Northeastern students and programs.
Each gift helps students balance family, work, ministry, and study as they prepare for ministry with the support of caring faculty and staff. When you’re in the Circle, you receive exclusive benefits, invitations to special events, and opportunities to connect to the President, faculty, staff, and students. Join the Circle to be a part of a generous group of people who all believe in Northeastern and the mission the Seminary inspires.
To become a Circle member, we ask that you make a gift of $500 or more each year and pray regularly for the Seminary, its students, faculty, and staff.
