non-traditional campus ministry
seeking faith through action

 

 

 

How are we non-traditional?

  • We use service work to reach out to students who might not attend
    a traditional campus ministry.
  • We run three service organizations on our campuses.
  • We teach students leadership and service learning.
  • We work with over 250 students each year.
  • We send 1-2 students off to seminary or full time service/mission work
    each year.
  • We help students who are beginning to question their childhood faith
    claim adult faith.
  • We take students to the margins of existence and help them ask Why?
  • We show them a vision of the world made whole and help them ask Why not?
  • We believe that faith is about action and vocation.

Where were you when I was naked,
hungry and homeless?

We teach our students to be there.
