Interest Form for 2026 Cohorts

Púlpito Fellows is an innovative program activiting faith leaders to harness technology and social media as transformative tools for ministry. Recognizing the digital pulpit as a fertile space for sowing seeds of faith, the program equips fellows to share gospel-centered, justice-oriented messages with digital audiences. This is not a preaching 101 course but a program that helps elevate what you are already doing or helps you get started preaching/teaching in this digital age. It also helps you define your audience and utilize technology and social media platforms.

This is a hybrid program with one in-person gathering and then nine sessions over Zoom.

Please note that this interest form is a part of our selection process, which includes:

  1. Completing the interest form, which will be reviewed for participant application invitation. 
  2. Being invited and attending a Zoom informational session to hear information to help you determine if this program is for you. Those will be scheduled for Nov, Dec of 2025 and Jan of 2026.
  3. Completion of the program application - by invitation after attending Zoom informational.

Those accepted into the program will be required to sign a covenant, demonstrating their commitment to the program and understanding of its expectations which includes attendance at all in person and zoom sessions based on schedule below.  

There are two languages for cohorts. One bilingual (Eng/Spanish) preferred by Spanish dominant applicannts and one in English only for our BIPOC applicants. For the most part, our bilingual cohorts allow fellows to speak in their dominant language while content is delivered in English. Our faculty and staff are bilingual.
