Campus Missionary

Campus Missionary: Enlist, Educate, Equip, Empower, Encourage. Campus Missionary exists to encourage students to be commissioned by their church and to be committed to sharing the Gospel at their school. They are also equipped with tools needed to reach their school for Jesus Christ.

Strategy

Overview - The Campus Missionary strategy is a bold concept for evangelizing the 56,000 secondary school campuses in America. It revolves around the idea that school campuses are mission fields, Christian students are missionaries, and churches are sending agencies. Teachers, administrators, coaches, and parents are limited in their freedom to share the gospel in an educational setting, but students are native to school culture and have more opportunities to share the love of Jesus.

However, they must be awakened to the spiritual needs of their fellow students and to the opportunities they have to meet those needs. They must be enlisted, educated, equipped, empowered, and encouraged to set the example of a believer's lifestyle. If students can develop a foundation of service while they are teen-agers, they can continue to join God in His work of reconciliation and can be "on mission" every day of their lives.
