Gatherings
We enjoyed a great intergenerational Thanksgiving Dinner! Family, friends, and students who stayed back at school came together for an evening of love, food, and gratitude!
Upcoming Gatherings:
On Saturday, Dec. 15th, we will be hosting a Christmas gathering/party for college students and young adults throughout the County!
Campus Mission Coalition IS going District-Wide
Pastor Benjamin JQ Mai and I are combining forces to launch the Campus Mission Coalition throughout the Pacific Southwest District (PSD) of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod! We are passionate about campus ministry and are driven to help move college ministry into new frontiers in the PSD. We want to inspire unity in LCMS campus ministries as the most effective approach to seeing college ministries thrive.
Starting on GivingTuesday and going through the Advent/Christmas season, our goal is to raise $20,000 by the new year!!
Our Vision:
We see a missionary effort at all secular colleges in the Pacific Southwest District. We believe that every local church can impact their local colleges in launching and supporting an effective missional outreach, whether it be through prayer, resource, or people. We see a day where college age individuals are retained and sustained within the faith. In addition we see the future church with new leaders to usher the Lutheran church and church at large into the future.
Our Mission:
To unite, resource, and multiply campus missions in the Pacific Southwest District of the LCMS.
Funds will go toward leadership support, but also in resourcing the existing college missions within the coalition - at University of California, Los Angeles; University of California, San Diego; California State, Northridge; University of Southern California! Even more, we are raising the funds to truly resource ALL existing college ministries in the PSD in our effort to unite, but also to seed new missions to future secular universities. As a coalition, we see all churches and all church members as vital to our mission. We are thankful for you, for your prayers, support, and generosity!
