An intentionally ecumenical, interdenominational student ministry, the Maine Christian Association is committed to creating an atmosphere of respect, tolerance, and spiritual support, which celebrates human diversity, works for social justice and offers opportunities for spiritual growth. The campus minister’s responsibilities include leading weekly dinner and discussion, providing counseling for students, staff, faculty, and administrators, visiting local churches, offering worship, and connecting with other religious groups on campus. This campus ministry’s focus is on the three c’s: Connecting with God, Crossing boundaries, and Caring for others.
