DAYTON, Ohio -- Caption Reality TV star OmarosaOmarosa has gone from Donald Trump’s boardroom to her first day in the classrooms of an Ohio seminary.

The former villain of reality TV shows such as “The Apprentice” entered United Theological Seminary in Dayton on Monday for studies to become a minister.

Seminary President Wendy Deichmann had a welcome gift: a tiny mustard seed, a reminder of the Bible passage in which Jesus says an amount of faith even as small as a mustard seed makes all things possible.

Omarosa Manigault-Stallworth says few people have faith in her transformation, and that made it a wonderful present.

She’s taking classes in the Old and New Testaments and the History of Christianity. She’s also required to minister to the sick and dying at hospitals.
