The Center for Theology of Migration (CThM) is the academic and ministerial center of Samen Kerk in Nederland and is part of the School of Religion and Theology at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. CThM is dedicated to two core areas: education and research. We offer a one-year postgraduate program (60 EC) and a one-year professional program (30 EC), designed for migrant pastors (current and aspiring), church workers, and clergy. Additionally, CThM actively engages in scientific research on migration and Christianity, the role of migrant churches in the Netherlands and the broader Western context, and the evolving relationship between migrant churches and society.

​

Are you a migrant clergy member, pastor, or church worker? We invite you to join us at the Center for Theology of Migration. It would be our pleasure to welcome you to Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, one of the world’s leading institutions for the study of religion and theology.​
