College campus students are the servants who minister an ever-changing community. How do we prepare them for such service and for going beyond college ministry into the future of the larger Church? How do we train dedicated and creative future lay leaders in response to the declining availability of ordained ministers?

The Sound of Prayer - Music Education,Sacred Music

What we do with our voices creates a setting for prayer and worship. We express meaning more deeply in song. Learn how we can cultivate the spirituality and attitudes that help us attend more deeply to these truths, with a special emphasis on the young.
