Full-Time Chinese College Minister

Background:

God has placed ACC in the vicinity of a few college campuses including but not limited to UT Arlington, Dallas Baptist University, and Texas Christian University. ACC originally started from the college student ministry and will continue to be used by God to preach the gospel and make disciples among Chinese college students. In 2021, the UTA Chinese student ministry was restarted. As the pandemic is gradually over, we expect that the UTA student ministry will grow as more Chinese students come back to American colleges. DBU student ministry would also be strengthened with a dedicated college minister. In addition, we have also seen a potential opportunity to start a college student ministry at TCU.
