TUMI of Colorado Classes
The Urban Ministry Institute (TUMI) Capstone Program is a seminary-level biblical curriculum which is being used effectively to equip ministry leaders who might not otherwise have access to a biblical education. The 16 modules provide the most essential knowledge and skills for effective ministry and church leadership, making it an excellent tool to prepare students to be ministers of the gospel of Christ.
We have TUMI classes in several areas:
​
-
Fellowship Community Church in Centennial – Tuesday nights
-
Crosswind Church in Aurora – Monday nights
​
We are now taking applications for the next module at several Colorado locations. Contact Christian Paetsch at coloradoTUMI.christian@gmail.com or 720-487-7855 for locations, days, and times.
Fight the Good Fight of Faith Certification Program
Fight the Good Fight of Faith Certification Program is designed to help new and growing Christians become effective Disciples/warriors of Christ. Also listen to TUMI's 4-minute video about Fight the Good Fight of Faith at https://vimeo.com/169929237.
​
Fight the Good Fight is also a precursor certification course for all who want to participate in the TUMI Capstone program. Students can practice taking quizzes and finals, memorizing verses, doing ministry projects, and writing exegetical papers without the stress fo getting a grade. At the end of the course, the students are ready to seamlessly transfer into the TUMI Capstone program. Financial assistance is available upon request.
TUMI in Prisons
​Investing in a prisoner’s life—often considered worthless by outsiders—with the love of Christ Jesus and with a planned journey to Christian leadership, provides joy beyond explanation. At several prisons in Colorado, we have amazing TUMI students who have developed as leaders—men and women transformed to use for His glory—serving time behind bars. There is revival going on as these TUMI students lead Bible studies in their cells, invite inmates to attend church with them, minister to them during hard times or loss, and so much more. Some of the prison church leaders have asked TUMI students to preach sermons, give their testimony, serve on their church Board, and lead, play, or sing on the worship team.
