Collegiate Ministry in the Synod of Lakes and PrairiesThe Synod of Lakes and Prairies is continuing its long-standing commitment to collegiate ministry, and at its May meeting it adopted new funding guidelines to reflect a more inclusive understanding of collegiate ministry that embraces not only campus ministry, but also congregational-based and chaplaincy-based ministry. While the total dollar amount of funding has not changed, the new guidelines are intended to help the synod be a better steward of its resources and reach out to more students. Those who are involved in any kind of ministry to college students are encouraged to download the application guidelines (available as a PDF document below), and to download, complete and submit the application form electronically (available as both PDF and MSWord document) below. Questions may be sent to Elona Street-Stewart, staff liaison for the Task Force on Collegiate Ministry of the synod’s Ecclesiastical Relations Committee. After individual responses to questions, the questions and answers will be posted on this website. Please note: To apply using the PDF form of the application, print out the form, and then complete and mail it to the synod office, attention to Elona Street-Stewart. To apply using the MSWord version of the application, save a copy to your computer and complete it there. When finished, e-mail the form to Elona Street-Stewart. 2012 Collegiate Ministry Funding Guidelines 2012 Collegiate Ministry Funding Application in MSWord and PDF.
