Jordan Evangelical Theological Seminary
The mission of Jordan Evangelical Theological Seminary (JETS) is “to equip spiritual leaders for planting and strengthening churches in the Arab World.” Since 1991, JETS has equipped Christian leaders from Arabic-speaking countries in the Middle East, the Arabian Peninsula and North Africa.
An inter-denominational school, JETS is accredited by the European Evangelical Accrediting Association (EEAA), the Asia Theological Association (ATA) and the Middle East Association for Theological Education (MEATE). It offers bachelor’s and master’s degrees, as well as a Doctor of Ministry degree. These programs are designed to prepare men and women for ministry, often in difficult areas.
JETS graduates serve in several Arab countries, as well as in Arab communities in the West. They minister in roles including church planters, pastors, teachers, writers, evangelists, worship leaders and women’s ministry leaders. And, God has used them to bring many to faith in Christ and to plant churches in challenging places.
Your gift to Jordan Evangelical Theological Seminary will equip more Christian leaders for ministry in Arab communities. Through JETS graduates, least-reached people hear the gospel and churches are planted.
Specific Needs:
- $1,200 pays for one student's monthly scholarship for tuition and living expenses.

Participate by Praying for Jordan Evangelical Theological Seminary:
- Pray for strength and grace for incoming students as they adapt to a new culture, and ask God to meet their financial needs.
- Lift up JETS graduates as they return to their homelands to establish new churches or strengthen existing churches, often in communities where ministry is especially difficult.
- Pray that more believers from throughout the Arab world will learn about and attend JETS so that the seminary can more effectively accomplish its goal of equipping students to reach people who don’t yet know about Jesus.
- Pray that JETS’ expanding publications will help meet the need for resources for the church in the Arab world.
- Ask God to provide for the seminary’s growing financial needs.
