Micro Church: College (3 of 5)
I believe that over the next several years, micro churches will become an important part of renewal within The United Methodist Church.
I believe that colleges and universities have great potential to be a place where micro churches will flourish. In residence halls and public spaces, there exists a community that is already in close proximity. College is a time when persons are willing to try new things and an invitation on the spur of a moment can have significant impact. I believe that existing United Methodist campus ministries could work to equip leaders to lead micro churches wherever they live and have a significant impact on the life of the university. This removes the need for a central meeting place and creates the opportunity for students to practice hospitality where they already spend times with friends - where they live.
I believe that could have a significant impact on the future of campus ministry in The United Methodist Church.
How do you respond to this idea?
