Mason, Baker and Gray Campus Life clubs have begun!  Fliers have been passed out.  Staff have been on the school grounds talking with students. Volunteers have been prepared, the food has been acquired.  It has been a long process to get all the pieces together.  The day that we have all been waiting for has come… Campus Life start ups at three new middle school in Tacoma! 

Gray is a new school facility at the site of  the old Mt. Tahoma High School.  Because of the desire of several students and faculty members, we were asked to help establish an outreach on their campus.  Since the beginning of the school year we have been in process to get the Campus Life club up and running.  The desire was strong but some of the pieces were not in place.  I was present when students gathered around the flag pole to pray for their school.  It was clear by the prayers of the students that they want to see change at Gray.  They asked God to change the reputation of the school to be more positive and that Christ would be made known on their Campus!  It is exciting to now see this Campus Life outreach established where students, staff, local pastors and parents are all collaborating together to make Christ known!

Baker Middle School also began with a new team of leaders.  Matt Roberson has taken the charge to reach this campus!  Being a “graduate” of Baker himself, he brings an understanding of the community and school.  He is developing a team and connecting to the local church community to create partnerships to have greater effectiveness in this ministry! 

Mason Campus Life has now been meeting for the past few Wednesdays.  Joe Moore, the club director, and the volunteer team have been developing the club ministry.  Even with the obstacle of not being able to be on the campus during lunches, they have moved forward.  Being that all the leaders are themselves residents of the area they are meeting students through friends that they already know and finding creative ways to make inroads into the Mason student population.

At each site the goal is the same… to reach the “every” on their campus and to make Christ known!  

Baker, Mason and Gray Campus Life clubs all meet on Wedneday after school.
