For some college students, religious organizations play a very important role. Other students may go their whole college years without visiting the office of a campus faith group. The UNCG faith groups are housed in the northeast corner of the Walker Avenue Parking Deck. Yellow banners name the religious groups served by the Smith Campus Ministries Center on Stirling Street. There are Baptist, Catholic, Jewish, and Wesley-Luther Campus groups. Muslim students are served by the UNCG Muslim Students Association.
The above photo features the lines for the food trucks yesterday, during UNCG's International Festival. Many people may not have noticed where these religious offices are housed. However, outreach is important to these groups and, they make every effort to serve the needs of all students who seek their services. Especially as students enter the last few weeks before final exams, it is important that students know how to reach out and find spiritual support. In some cases, students will also need mental health support and the religious offices know how to help them find that additional level of care.
Happy Sunday!
Such groups have a presence on campuses here too.
