Program areas at Campus Christian Fellowship
Other program services include many items but the majority of funds are directed to ccfs discipleship structure led and guided by the staff. The staff serves students in various ways from leadership training, programming logistics, discipleship meetings, teaching, and pastoral care. Therefore, a large percentage of our program service expense on this line is attributed to staffing.
Misc student events - most of ccfs events are provided free of charge. Free events offered include truman week events for incoming students, fall party, house feast, random mens and womens events, 5k race, prayer meetings, etc. A small fee is charged for the mens/womens retreat and the valentine day dinner. Students are also asked to pay to attend the national student conference.
Spring break mission project to glorieta adventure camps in glorieta, nm- each year ccf goes to a different camp and spends 1 week doing work projects to fix, upgrade, and improve the camp. In addition to completing work projects, participants have bible study and worship, play sports, and have 1 free day to relax. 134 individuals participated in the mission project for a fee of $175 per person. Reducted rates were available for those who could not afford the fee. The spring break mission project nets a surplus some years while other years it has a deficit due to fuel prices, vehicle expenses, and food costs. The surplus is used to fund future mission projects.
Staff discipleship and ministry - staff discipleship and ministry is a broad category that allows each staff person to lead discipleship groups, facilitate coaching groups with our leadership team (approximately 50 to 70 student leaders), do outreach with new students, and maintain relationships with alumni. Staff development is also included in this category. These expenses can vary staff person to staff person, but the vast majority include food and coffee for meetings, books, and fuel expense for the enrichment and growth of students and alumni.
