Statement of Purpose for the Campus
Ministry at Texas A&M University
On this page of The Battalion are announcements from
churches near our campus. As a state university, we have
no official linkage with any church or religious group. None
theless, we feel that a vigorous spiritual growth is a most im
portant phase in the educational breadth of men and women.
Hence, I am pleased and proud that so many church affiliations
are available for students here, and I urge you to take ad
vantage of association with the group of your choice. .
The campus ministry, ss the several preachers and priests ’
identify themselves, has a number of purposes. The most
important is the role of the ministry to offer each student
opportunity to hold fast to his faith while studying at TAMU.
The ministry hopes, also, to relate religion and mature the
ological sensitivity to the economic, political, and social prob
lems of our complex world and, by so doing, to demonstrate
the parallel relationship between a deep religious conviction
and a service-oriented citizenship.
I hqpe you will participate in the church programs at and
near our campus. To fail to do so is to leave unanswered a
cordial invitation to fellowship and worship and to exchange
ideaa about life and its meaning with friends new and old.
