Greetings from the University Ministry

This year our role on campus will be to seek Christ and to share Him with others through providing physical, social, and emotional needs for UNC (and other college) students.  I am thrilled to be working alongside all of you in this endeavor at UBC, and as a graduate of UNC in the class of 2008, I look forward to making a new connection to the university I have come to love.  After graduating Kings Mountain High School in 2004, I attended UNC-Chapel Hill as a Teaching Fellow and graduated with a major in Middle Grades Education.   For the past three years I have taught middle school social studies and language arts in Kings Mountain, Roxboro, and Durham, NC, and will continue to teach middle school social studies and coach football at Carrington Middle School in Durham this coming year.  I also take a good amount of time playing, singing, and beaching, as well as fitting a good baseball/football game into my schedule.  I look forward to working with students of all ages this fall and spring, and am quite excited about the opportunities that Christ has laid before us in the coming months.   As we enter this year, please be in prayer for students as they return to things old and new in their lives.  Also be in prayer about the some of the upcoming events that we have planned for students, which are listed below:   

Feb. 5 - Super Bowl Party: all college students are invited to Shawn and Katie Evans' house for a Super Bowl Party at 6 pm. Meet at church at 5:30 to go together!

Feb. 11  & 25 - Habitat for Humanity Service Ministry Opportunities.  Come to UBC at either 8 am or

12 pm.   Further details to come!

Feb. 15 - College Pizza Night at 5:15pm and Bible Study at 6 in the Great Hall.
