Agape Seminary is located in Florida and operates under the authority of the State Board of Colleges and Universities, and is fully authorized to issues degrees in theological studies.

The purpose of the Seminary is to offer degree programs in Theology and Ministry who those interested in such studies, and as well to prepare men and women for service in the Priesthood for those interested. Programs are designed for those purposes.  Anyone interested in religious degree studies are invited to register for our degree programs even if not interested in Ordination. 

Decisions as to Ordination are at the discretion of a Bishop and your Denomination but we will offer assistance and guidance and make introductions to assist your call to Ministry.

We offer two types of programs, the first for preparation for Ordination - a comprehensive study to prepare one for Ministry. The other program is to offer advance studies leading to graduate degrees to those already in Ministry or those not in ministry but who seek further education. However all programs are open to all interested.

We must stress that we do not offer academic degree work - our studies are exclusively for Church and religious purposes. If you are seeking a degree for secular purposes look elsewhere. If you feel a call to service within the Independent Catholic Movement we invite you to associate with us. You do not need to join the ICCA, and we will work with Bishops of other Churches to prepare their candidates.

Our fees are reasonable, as our faculty work without salary as part of their ministry.
