Alumni/ae Relations

What makes McCormick so great? It’s the people who make up what we proudly call “The McCormick Community.”

This community includes trustees, faculty, administrative staff students, church and community partners, neighbors, friends and, most especially, our alumni/ae! Our hope is that your online connection with McCormick Theological Seminary’s Office of Alumni/ae Relations will strengthen your bond with the Seminary and will nurture mutually beneficial relations between you and the entire McCormick Community.

Through reunions, regional events, networking, continuing education programs and this website, we will continue to strive to be truly connectional and to serve you as you serve in your varied ministries. Please log on, sign in and connect with us regularly. With more than 5,400 McCormick alums throughout the world, your circle of friends is likely to grow!

May the “the ties that bind” us together in mission and ministry be made stronger. I urge you to call or write with suggestions of how we might do that even better.

Peace and grace,
