Ministry Council
The purpose of
the Campus Ministry Council is to act as a decision-making body for campus
ministry issues, within the context of the jurisdiction granted
the Ministry Council by ASSP, the Perkins Center, and the Office of University Ministries
and the Center for Worship (and specifically excluding those decisions
which fall within individual position descriptions).
Membership
The Campus Ministry Council is chaired by the ASSP vice president
of ministries (a student-elected position), and consists
of the following members: Urban Involvement (UI) coordinator, group
coordinator, SPRINT coordinator, Campus Student Ministry coordinator (CSMC),
Chapel Worship Team coordinator, Latreia coordinator, Sharpen coordinator,
two ASSP senators, and all
OUM/CFW and Perkins Center staff members.
Responsibilities
Selection: Final Selection of all coordinators
rests with the Campus Ministry Council. A review committee consisting
of the current coordinator, the vice president of ministries,
VPM-elect, and the designated advisor from OUM/CFW or the Perkins Center reviews
applications and conducts interviews.
The review committee nominates
one candidate to Campus Ministry Council for final approval. CMC considers nominations
and either approves the nomination or refers it back to the review
committee for reconsideration. If CMC refers a nomination to the
review comittee, the committee reopens the application process.
CMC typically completes its selection process within three weeks
after ASSP Officer elections. All decisions of CMC require a two-thirds
majority vote.
Other Duties: The Council
is responsible for making decisions on campus ministry issues
in the context of its purpose, outlined above. Primary issues include
new program ideas, formation of ministry procedures and
guidelines, and evaluation of current programs for the purpose of
instituting improvements and/or determining program continuation.
All decisions require a two-thirds majority vote. The CMC also supports
and prays for the ongoing ministries within the organization. |
