St Hild Lincoln
St Hild Lincoln is based at Edward King House in the heart of Lincoln, opposite Lincoln Cathedral. Lincoln has been the site of theological education for many years, training ordinands through Lincoln Theological College (1874–1995), and more recently Lincoln School of Theology. Edward King House, once the home of the Bishop of Lincoln, is now the site of the offices for the Diocese of Lincoln, and the teaching spaces for St Hild Lincoln.
We offer a variety of training for lay and ordained ministries in the Church of England and welcome Christians of all denominations to study Theology for Mission and Ministry to deepen their faith and to prepare them to serve God in a variety of ministries and contexts.
Our teaching typically takes place over two Saturdays each term at Edward King House in Lincoln, and six Thursday evenings on Zoom, joining with other students from the wider College. We offer both undergraduate and postgraduate study.
Readers in training join in with additional sessions on Saturdays in Lincoln (one each term) to support their formation in lay ministry, and also take part in a monthly Reader Reflection Group on Zoom on Thursday evenings.
Ordinands and those exploring ordained ministry through the Elizabeth Pathway also join with the wider St. Hild College’s ordinand programme at Mirfield for two weekends each term, plus a week at Easter. We offer both part and full-time contextual ordination training, with academic elements based in Lincoln and formation at Mirfield.
