Moravian Seminary Alumni Awards

Each year the Alumni/ae Board of Governors recognizes two graduates of Moravian Theological Seminary who have served with distinction by honoring them with the John Hus Award and the Bishop Kortz Award. Graduates of the Seminary are invited to nominate their fellow alumni for these awards which are presented at the annual Moravian Theological Seminary Reunion Luncheon.

The John Hus Award gives special recognition to a graduate, who, through outstanding service has brought distinction to the work of ministry. Any graduate of the Seminary is eligible to be nominated for the John Hus Award.

The Bishop Edwin W. Kortz Award honors a Master of Arts in Pastoral Counseling (MAPC) graduate of the Seminary who has achieved excellence in the field of pastoral counseling ministry and has brought distinction to the work of pastoral counseling. Any MAPC graduate of the Seminary is eligible to be nominated for the Bishop Kortz Award.

Nominations for the Alumni Awards are accepted and reviewed each fall by the Recognition Committee of the Alumni/ae Board of Governors. Completed nomination forms are required in order for the committee to review standard information on each of the nominees. Nominees who are considered but not selected for the award are re-evaluated in future years.

If you wish to nominate a graduate of MTS for the John Hus Award or Bishop Kortz Award please submit the required information found on the back panel by October 31st.
