Purpose statement was read: “to guide and shape campus ministry in the diocese, and to be a sounding board and resource to campus ministers in WV.”
Jason’s responsibilities are as diocesan liaison. The ministries at Marshall and WVU have little support of their program. Our job is to be a resource to parishes. We also may be able to support a Hallelujah Hike reunion.
