Episcopal Campus Ministry

“Who is Jesus to you?” asks a hip montage on this campus ministry homepage. The images next to the query are clearly tailored to a college crowd – we see Jesus as a Simpsons character, an iPod-wearing hipster, a Middle Eastern Christ, even an arty alien.
On the ECM @ GSU banner is an invitation: come worship, laugh, play & eat with us. If you click through the site, you get the feeling they really mean it – in the sweet name of Jesus. The ‘tues nights’ (worship and free food) page provides as much invitation as information, saying, “Jesus was generous, and he loved to eat! He ate with friends, with sinners, and with strangers.” “We want you to feel as welcome at our table as you would if you were sitting at Jesus’ table.”
The 26-year-old chaplain (and web designer) is available to the students online through this site and Facebook (an online social networking site). The News & Notes blog and weekly E-newsletters are good ways to stay connected to the latest ECM goings-on. As a cyber gathering place and news source, this website is part and parcel of the mission of this ministry: helping students feel connected and cared for, while discovering who Jesus is… to you.
