TGIF! Here’s What’s Up in Campus Ministry

Posted by admin on January 22, 2010 under 5. TGIF! |

The Institute of Black Catholic Studies at Xavier University of New Orleans is offering a summer course June 12-17, 2010, Black Perspectives on the Gospel on Campus, instructed by Rev. Dr. Edward Branch, D.Min., Director of Campus Ministry at Lyke House at Atlanta University. This course will review the history of Catholic campus ministry and will discuss the proceedings from the first Historically Black College and University Summit. It will also study the Pastoral Plan for Catholic campus ministry in the United States and the Handbook for Campus Ministers, as well as study and create strategies and tools for campus evangelization with and among Black collegians. For more information and to register please visit http://www.xula.edu/ibcs/about.php.

The Higher Education Relations Committee is exploring the National Association of College University Chaplains. There are definite benefits to networking with this organization and we would like to know if any campus ministers are also members of NACUC. If so, please contact Debbie Neely, neelydeb@yahoo.com with your feedback. Thank you greatly!
