Niner United Campus Ministry http://campus-ministry.org Wed, 10 Apr 2013 01:59:16 +0000 en-US hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5.1 Welcome http://campus-ministry.org/welcome/ http://campus-ministry.org/welcome/#comments Wed, 10 Apr 2013 01:58:43 +0000 admin http://campus-ministry.org/?p=1316 Welcome!

United Christian Fellowship (UCF) is a Charlotte based campus-ministry sponsored by the Episcopal, Lutheran, Presbyterian and United Methodist Churches. UCF is split into three different campus’, each providing worship and ministry to the major schools in Charlotte. The three locations are UNC-Charlotte, known to them as Niner United, Johnson and Wales University, known as Wildcats United, and Central Pedimont Community College, known as Uptown United! We are a campus ministry that strives to bear witness to Jesus’ message of love and companionship leaving no room for hatred and judgement. We are all inclusive and see welcome everyone as a brother or sister in Christ.

As you can imagine, we are out for the summer taking a break from all of the hard work that we do here at Niner United and at our schools. Don’t let that deter you though, for this website plays host to all of the wonderful ministries that we partake in. We are also actively planning and preparing for an exciting 2013-2014 school year that is filled with lots of ministry, fun and friendship.

Take a look around and be sure to fill out our contact page. We will add you to our mailing list (no spam, we promise) and keep you updated with events as they happen. Check back often for updates and we hope to see you come August as we prepare for a brand new year!

“Go forth and serve the Lord”

It helps students “get” the Christian faith. Did you miss confirmation? Do you feel like you need something more? Sound down the faith with us. We’ll be starting a Catechism this semester, but we need to know who’s interested. So give us some feedback:
