About Wellspring Pastoral Residency
The Wellspring Pastoral Residency exists to form pastors for a lifetime of faithful ministry in the local church.
We believe pastoral formation happens through proximity, practice, and Scripture not only in classrooms, but in the everyday life of the Church.
Rooted in the life of Wellspring Church, this residency develops leaders who are spiritually mature, theologically grounded, and shaped for faithful shepherding.
About Wellspring Church
Wellspring Church is a local church committed to helping people encounter Jesus. We are passionate about discipleship and want to help others grow in community and live out their faith in everyday life.
We believe the Church is not a building or a program, it is a living body of believers shaped by Scripture, led by the Holy Spirit, and sent into the world with purpose.
Everything we do flows from a desire to see people rooted in Christ and formed into mature disciples.
Our Vision
We exist to raise up pastors who are:
Grounded in Scripture
Formed in Christlike character
Shaped through the life of the local church
Prepared for lifelong, faithful ministry
Our goal is not to produce impressive leaders, but faithful, humble shepherds.
Theology of Formation
We believe Jesus forms people through shared life.
He taught, yes, but He also walked with, served with, and shaped His disciples in real environments over time.
That same rhythm shapes this residency:
Experience, Exposure, and Education.
These are not systems of training, they are environments of formation.
Leadership Philosophy
We value humility over platform, faithfulness over visibility, and character over gifting.Leaders are formed first as followers of Jesus.
Our aim is simple: faithful shepherds who love the Church and serve it well.
