Men’s Coordinator of Campus Ministry: Position Overview

The role of the Men’s Campus Ministry Coordinator is to create an environment in which college students can encounter Jesus Christ, be known and loved, and be formed into missionary disciples.

The Men’s Campus Minister specifically is responsible for keeping his finger on the pulse of the men in RamCatholic. Alongside male FOCUS missionaries and our clergy, he actively seeks opportunities to build wider fraternity amongst the men within RamCatholic. This will be accomplished by challenging men into deeper commitment as disciples and by calling men to discover their mission and vocation in the Church. The Men’s Campus Minister should also have a heart for encountering the lost, and should personally embrace the parish of Saint John XXIII and RamCatholic as a home. With an eye on the broader student community, he will work to make RamCatholic a refuge and light for every college student that walks through our doors, and he will serve as a resource and connector for each student we meet on campus.

The role requires flexibility, generosity and availability, working 2-3 evenings/nights a week for RamCatholic events and our Candlelight Mass and working occasional weekends for retreats and ministry events.

The position will have an initial 90 day probationary period where the organization and employee can determine fit. The employee will receive an evaluation after the 90 day period.

We are looking for a candidate who is well formed in the teachings of the Catholic Church, Sacred Scripture, and Discipleship and who is able to spark curiosity and form others in these areas.

He should be approachable and relatable, with an ability to connect with a diverse range of college students. The right candidate will be able to effectively and efficiently manage their own schedule, ensuring all administrative work is completed in a timely manner and communicated with excellence. We are looking for a team player, as our parish staff works very collaboratively together alongside our FOCUS missionaries and parishioners, and desires to model shared life, shared prayer, and shared mission for our students. He should be able to take instruction, exercise flexibility, and sacrifice joyfully in the workplace.
