Campus Ministry Summer Happenings

This summer, my blog has been fairly silent, but I’ve been really busy. Here are two things that are happening in the upcoming weeks in the world of campus ministry. I hope that you’ll be able to join in the ministry.

  1. I’ve written several times about my involvement with a prayer campaign for campus ministry in the United Methodist Church. Well…we’re counting down. Read this article from The United Methodist Reporter and then click on over to our website. It will launch on August 2 and the prayers will be available in time for our August 23 start date for prayer.
  2. My former Asbury colleague, Dr. Guy Chmieleski, has organized an online conference blog–a-thon for next week, August 3-5, on his blog, Faith On Campus. He writes about his blog here. He’s got an incredible lineup of campus ministry types from all over the country who are going to be writing and weighing in on other posts during the three days. If you can, check in (and chime in!) during between Tuesday and Thursday. I’ve even written a blog for one of the days.

So…between preparing for the new school year and getting a little bit of rest, there is much going on! I hope that you’ll join.

PS The picture is one painted by a SC student in our campus prayer room. It has been my prayer this summer.
