"Welcome to Georgia Southern! The Baptist Collegiate Ministries has many opportunities for you to serve, grow, and become involved with others pursuing the love of Christ as a university student. PrimeTime is 8pm on Tuesdays. Wednesday lunch is at 12 and 1 (Local Churches are so gracious--they bring lunch for you each week! Your 1st luncheon is FREE, then just $2--and that goes back into student missions!). FAT (Freshman and Transfer) Thursdays happen at 7 pm. Plus, we have Bible Studies, Family Groups, and share groups at various times and places. Then, about once a month or so, we have some sort of out of town retreat. Our Missions and Ministries teams are active locally in "coffee house" ministry, missions at local community events, nursing homes, helping with the boys/girls' clubs, help with local youth groups (you MUST fill out a "child protection" form in the BCM office a minimum of 3 weeks in advance in order to participate in events involving kids under 18), and a variety of ever-changing local missions opportunties.

What's next? Where do you find your place as a college student? You are on your own and seriously thinking about the person you will become. You are bombarded by all sorts of conflicting opinions, ideas, and philosophies about how you should live your life. Now is the time to make choices that will set patterns for a lifetime. Decide who you will be and how that will influence your future, finances, friendships, and faith. Use your experiences and talents to lead at Georgia Southern. Be part of a fun group of students eager to make a difference in other people's lives! We have 25 ministry teams ranging from DNow groups to Fellowship to local missions. Please, let me encourage you, find your place of service and growth. You will never have a better time for learning and making a difference in your world than now."

Senior Campus Minister
