Statement of Purpose for the Campus
Ministry at Texas A&M University
Encouragement of spiritual growth is a highly important
part of Texas A&M University’s program of total development
for those students who come here seeking an education.
There are many faiths represented among the students,
faculty and staff members who comprise the University com
munity. Our campus ministry is called upon to stimulate
spiritual growth among the members of the University com
munity as they search for direction in their lives, according
to their particular faiths. This objective is accomplished
through various types of worship, programming, and personal
counseling, which we know as the campus' ministry.
In a spirit of close harmony, the campus ministry assists
the University in its educational program by helping members
of the various faiths represented to become more sensitive to
their responsibilities in the economic, political and social world.
In so doing, the campus ministry performs the vital duty of
demonstrating the close relationship between religious faith
and worthy citizenship.
A program such as this requires continuous communica
tion between the various faiths represented and the University.
Effective communication assures each student the opportunity
to hold fast to his faith while studying here, thus laying the
foundation for continued spiritual growth in the years to fol
low.
