Reaching students who live on campus has always been easier...at least in all the contexts I have served and observed. I am at heart super practical and always just like to see and hear ideas. Here is an idea for Commuter Outreach from Roger and Rose Bear at Indiana State University.
"Every month we do an outreach project on campus. In September we focus on commuters. We make welcome bags that contain a car air freshener, a gospel tract called "God Allows U Turns," and a cut-out of a car that says "You AUTO check out BCM" with our contact information. We stood on the sidewalk at couple of campus locations and gave them to students as they walked in from the parking lots, and then gave out more at a commuter event sponsored by ISU. 200 students received these bags."
What do you do to intentionally reach out to commuters?
The National Collegiate Ministers Summit will be in Nashville, May 2-4. Do you have it on your calendar? It only happens once every three years.
