Announcing Christ on Campus Chapters

Posted At: 10:56am by Rev. Marcus T. Zill
Dear everyone,

As the campus ministry arm of Higher Things, Christ on Campus seeks to connect high-school and college age youth with faithful Lutheran campus ministries and assist congregations and campus ministries in their faithful service to Lutheran college students.

We are pleased to unveil what we believe will be a key component in doing just that!

CHRIST ON CAMPUS CHAPTERS
http://higherthings.org/campus/chapters.html

Connect with other Lutheran campus ministries committed to providing Biblical and Confessional catechesis, solid liturgical practice, and faithful pastoral care.

Who is eligible to become a Christ on Campus Chapter?

Any Lutheran congregation or campus ministry organization may apply to become a Higher Things Christ on Campus Chapter. Those who might consider joining the Christ on Campus Chapter network include:
  • Full-time campus ministries
  • Congregations committed to part-time campus ministry and outreach at their local college, university, community college, or vocational institute
  • Other campus ministry related organizations
  • Groups desirous of planting a campus outreach where none presently exist
Please go to http://higherthings.org/campus/chapters.html to learn more about Christ on Campus Chapters and download an application.

Announcing 2006 College Retreats!

Posted At: 11:26am by Rev. Marcus T. Zill
A blessed Christmastide to one and all!

2006 is going to be an exciting new year in terms of campus ministry, done Higher Things style!  In addition to our Fourth Annual Staff Conference , the Christ on Campus Team is pleased to announce that there will be at least six regional college retreats in the coming year.

Registration and further details will be coming in mid January, but please peruse the Christ on Campus College Retreats page for preliminary basic information on these wonderful events for college students. More information will be provided as soon as it is available.

While these retreats are being designed to be as cheap as possible for the collegiate wallet, nothing will be sacrificed in terms of the integrity of the worship, study and fun activities that one would expect at a Higher Things event. 

These retreats will engage the college mind in topics relevant to campus life, worldviews, the Scriptures, the Lutheran Confessions, evangelism and mission on campus, the advance and defense of the Christian faith as well as worship and praise of God through the rich Reformation traditions of the church.

So check out the Christ on Campus College Retreats page to find a college retreat near you!
