North Carolina School of Ministry

Hickory First Assembly of God is one of two campus locations for the North Carolina School of Ministry. The NC-SOM meets the third Saturday of each month, nine times a year. This is a credentialing opportunity for those who feel the call to ministry. The NC-SOM also provides students who aren't interested in the credentialing process an opportunity to further their discipleship in a classroom setting.
