Every campus minister who works with Baptist Collegiate Ministry looks for ways to guide students to missions, to ministry, and to a growing personal relationship with the Lord. And often that campus minister is hard pressed to find the needed funding and acknowledgement from key leadership across the convention that Collegiate Ministry is vital to the future of the church.
For the past four years, BCM students have been invited to be the very first person to greet every messenger, every pastor, every convention leader who attends the Southern Baptist Convention. Key convention leaders have commented that the students have added a bright spot to the convention! The feedback has been positive & encouraging.
In 2009, the Southern Baptist Convention is meeting in Louisville, Kentucky. We’re looking for six (6) states to send a team of 10 students with two campus ministers/state collegiate ministry workers to be part of the Collegiate Ministry SBC Registration Team for June 19—26, 2009.
We need 60 students to work the desk and 10 key Collegiate Ministers to work the crowd...promoting collegiate ministry!
Planning Steps:
· Your state collegiate ministry missions team begins to promote the SBC Team as one of your 2009 summer missions projects.
· Enlist 2 BCM Directors or state collegiate ministry staff to serve on your team.
· Enlist 10 students to serve on your state team.
· Arrange your travel plans to & from Louisville.
· Your state team handles transportation & some meals….we’ll help with some meals.
· We’ll hook you up with a Crossover church partner for your team on Saturday.
· We have arrangements made for housing at Southern Seminary. Your Cost is $11 per room per day. You can put 2/room.

BCM students from Indiana, Kentucky, Georgia and Tennessee staffed the Registration booth at the Southern Baptist Convention in Indianapolis last year. Baptist Collegiate Ministry students have staffed the registration desk for the past four years at the annual Southern Baptist Convention. The short-term summer missions experience gives students a chance to be part of the inner workings of the Convention, and puts BCM students in a position to greet every messenger that attends the event from across the SBC.
