The Fort Wayne School of Urban Ministry (FWSUM) was founded for the purpose of “equipping God’s people for the work of the ministry” (Ephesians 4:12) in the urban context.   The vision of FWSUM is to train the next generation of transformational urban leaders who will have a heart for the city and assume significant ministry roles in the city; especially ministries that focus on the poor, the disenfranchised and ethnically diverse peoples.
