Centres & Departments
Centre for Missional Engagement
Global-regional-national-local opportunities for engagement in God’s mission continue to increase as the contexts continue to change. MST & Eastern College Australia desire to equip missional practitioners, mindful that the realities of post-Christendom, post-colonial – and now, post-Covid-19 – contexts are overlaid with inherited assumptions, theological justifications, organisational systems, processes and language that are dominated in part by the older Christendom paradigm. The Centre for Missional Engagement (CME) will provide a forum to meet, discuss, learn together, engage in thought-leadership, and envision new and renewed directions and language around missional thinking and organisational leadership.
Arthur Jeffery Centre
for the Study of Islam
The Arthur Jeffery Centre desires to see Christians trained to effectively engage in cross cultural ministry. The Centre also seeks to enable Christians to be an informed and biblical grounded voice in shaping the national, political, and religious landscape of their nation. The Centre offers a range of publications, public lectures and teaching programs, such as: community courses, undergraduate study and postgraduate research into Islam from a Christian perspective.
Centre for Theology & Psychology
At the core of this Centre is a commitment to facilitate positive transformation in Christian leaders through the integration of theology and psychology. This centre exists to equip and grow disciples of Jesus Christ through the integration of faith and work in our own contexts and contribute to the flourishing of our communities. The Centre seeks to fulfill this mission through workshops, teaching, and research.

Day of
Reflection and Prayer
7 May
You’re invited to pull away from life’s distractions on Friday, 7 May, and join the MST & Eastern community for a day of prayer and solitude at Chestnut Hill Conference Lodge in Kallista. While we’ll have some suggested reflection prompts available, you’re welcome to spend the day however you like with the Lover of your soul. No need to pray out loud, no need to spend the day with any prescribed activity; rather, this is an opportunity for you to come close to Jesus and find rest.
