Norman W. Paschall Office of Campus Ministries
With Faith, Learning, and Leading as Reinhardt University’s guiding pillars, the Norman W. Paschall Office of Campus Ministries encourages everyone to participate in its offerings, which allow students the opportunities to love God and each other, grow through small groups, and do something to share God’s love. Campus Ministries can also help students get connected to a local church. The Campus Ministries Leadership Team, a dedicated group of students, leads the efforts to help students stay engaged in their Faith journey, and students are encouraged to apply for a position on this team each year!
Worship
Worship is an important part of faith development, and Campus Ministries offers a monthly student-led experience known as Common Ground Worship. At this service, students can engage with others as they worship and study the Bible. Additionally, throughout the school year, there are special worship services offered such as Opening Worship, Ash Wednesday, and the Easter Sunrise Service.
Grow
Discipleship is another aspect of faith development. Campus Ministries partners with various ministries and church partners to offer small groups, Bible Studies, and retreats for our students. Some of these ministries include Fellowship of Christian Athletes, The Reinhardt Baptist College Ministry and more. These groups meet weekly.
Do
Fellowship and service are other aspects of faith development. Campus Ministries offers opportunities to share God’s love with others through mission trips and service projects. Campus Ministries also provides the university with updates on volunteer opportunities throughout the Reinhardt community.
Religious Groups
There are several existing religious groups on campus with space for more as needs and desires arise. All groups work through the Office of Campus Ministries to operate in unity on Reinhardt University’s campus.
Religious Policies
In order to maintain a healthy environment for religious life at Reinhardt University, all religious organizations must meet the requirements detailed by the Student Government Association, and work cooperatively with the Coordinator of Spiritual Life & Service. All groups must also have an accountability structure and are expected to foster and maintain an environment of mutual respect among religious and non-religious clubs.
Any organization or group on campus that wants to host a religious guest or event must first gain approval from the Coordinator of Spiritual Life & Service.
Any para-church organization seeking a relationship with Reinhardt University shall first gain approval from the Coordinator of Spiritual Life & Service regarding access to campus facilities and access to students, faculty, and staff. If approval is granted, organizations must remember they are guests of the Coordinator of Spiritual Life & Service and can be removed from campus if concerns arise.
