The Ministerial Education Fund:
Preparing Men and Women for Effective Ministry

They come to DISCOVER. They come to be CHALLENGED. They learn to LEAD. They leave to SERVE.

The Ministerial Education Fund Apportionment  

For most United Methodist seminaries, Ministerial Education Fund (MEF) disbursement accounts for 12 to 20 percent of their annual budget.

25% of the receipts assist candidates for ministry, to support continuing education for pastors and clergy recruitment and to provide financial aid for students in your annual conference.

75% is disbursed to the 13 United Methodist seminaries to assist candidates for ordained ministry through scholarships and faculty salaries. It also goes to the General Board of Higher Education and Ministry to support the work of the Division of Ordained Ministry.


Thank you for Supporting the Ministerial Education Fund Apportionment at 100%!

For more information on Ministerial Education Fund scholarships and loans, please contact the General Board of Higher Education and Ministry.
