Church Relations

Church Relations Committee
The Church Relations Committee is a liaison between churches with ministries needs and students seeking a place to minister. Ministerial Alliance (MA), Mission Fellowship (MF), Religious Education Fellowship (REF) or Christian Music Fellowship (CMF) members and others desiring valuable church vocation experience keep a church relations information form on file in the Campus Ministries office to assist the process. The Church relations committee also assists the Campus Ministries office in connecting students with churches.

OBU Day
Volunteer students, staff and faculty visit churches to share in their ministries through preaching, leading in worship, special music (vocal and instrumental), teaching Sunday School classes and sharing their testimonies. OBU Day in the church is held on two consecutive Sundays in February.

New Creation
A performing troupe incorporates music and drama in their ministry with churches across the state to help raise awareness of Short Term Global Outreach Opportunities.

Worship Teams
OBU Students form Worship Teams of vocalists and instrumentalists who are interested in supporting churches and ministry events through Worship Leadership.

DiscipleNow
Each year, students are sent to churches from across the region to lead out in DiscipleNow events.
