Prestonwood Strengthens Ties with Seminary
by Southwestern News Staff
Prestonwood Baptist Church of Plano, Texas, took steps this summer to strengthen its ties with Southwestern Seminary.
According to Deron Biles, dean of extension education at the seminary, Southwestern president Paige Patterson and Prestonwood’s pastor, Jack Graham, along with other leaders from both the seminary and the church, gathered to discuss improvements to the seminary extension program at Prestonwood. The extension center was established in 2003.
“Southwestern is excited about the possibilities of our continued relationship with Prestonwood Baptist Church in extension education,” Biles said. Prestonwood has provided the seminary with office space and four classrooms, located above the bookstore where students can buy their texts. Students have access to wireless Internet, Prestonwood’s MainStreet Café, and the church library.
