The Curriculum

The Year of Jubilee Family Legacy Ministry Curriculum & Continuing Education Unit Structure Ronnie D. Joyner Ministries, Inc., with its church entity, The Philadelphia Fellowship (Baptist) in partnership with the Samuel Dewitt Procter School of Theology of Virginia Union University has positioned itself to award Continuing Education Units to enrollees of The Year of Jubilee Family Legacy Ministry through its Ministry Empowerment Seminar Track.

Virginia Union University states, “The unit of measurement used to certify satisfactory performance in the program is the Continuing Education Unit (CEU). The CEU is the nationally recognized and standardized measure for performance in similar programs of education and training. One CEU is defined as: “ten contact hours of participation in an organized continuing education experience under responsible sponsorship, capable direction and qualified instruction”1.

The Year of Jubilee Family Legacy Ministry is a 12 Month Educational, Evangelistic and Economic Empowering Experience, (Acts 11:26) with its sole purpose - to fulfill the Great Commission, (Matthew 28:18-20). This Continuing Education Unit Structure defines the Educational offering which undergirds our Evangelistic Thrust, (Acts 2:47) as well as our Economic Empowerment, (Leviticus 25:1-55; Deuteronomy 15:1-18; Isaiah 61:1,2; Luke 4:16-21) as we operate within the John 1:29-51 Paradigm).
