About Dr. Carl Ellis, Jr.
In 1969, Carl Ellis began his ministry as a Senior Campus Minister with the Tom Skinner Associates in New York. From 1979 to 1989, Carl served as the Assistant Pastor of Forest Park Community Church in Baltimore, MD, served on faculty at Chesapeake Theological Seminary, and served as a seminar instructor for Prison Fellowship where he developed and taught “in-prison” and “in-community” seminars for inmates and community volunteers. Between 1986 and 2009, Carl served as an adjunct faculty member at the Center for Urban Theological Studies (C.U.T.S.), and as Dean of Intercultural Studies at Westminster Theological Seminary in Philadelphia, PA. Carl was recently the Associate Pastor for Cultural Apologetics at New City Fellowship. Dr. Ellis studied under Francis Schaeffer at LÁbri in Hermoz sur Olon’, Switzerland, completed his MAR (Theology) at Westminster Theological Seminary, and holds a D.Phil. from Oxford Graduate School.
As leader of the institution-wide AALI, Dr. Ellis will teach, and collaborate with our presidents, deans and faculty to cultivate our mentoring and modeling of students who aspire to serve in predominantly black church and multi-ethnic contexts, as well as to promote fellowship for our African American students. He will work directly with the Chancellor as RTS seeks to grow the minority leadership of this generation and the next in the Reformed community, and to increase in our institutional diversity.
