Graduate Program

Open to all who have finished a Bachelor’s degree*, (not just at UVA!) the grad Fellows program is an opportunity to spend a year surrounded by the grace of God as you discern what this next chapter of life will look like. Think of it as a Gap Year. You will explore the Charlottesville area and serve others in the community while you focus on specific ministries at Christ Church and study the foundations of the Gospel and Christian theology. By the end of the year, we hope each fellow feels refreshed, hopeful about their future.
