What's God telling you? Share it here.   |   We’d love to pray for you! Let us know how.

Vision

The Connection College Leadership Team (CCLT) exists to raise up leaders who serve the mission of Connection College.

What is the unique opportunity for someone on CCLT? 

  1. Influencing other college students in Connection College by leading Connect Groups and Dream Team. Leading a Dream Team is specifically reserved for CCLT and one of the main opportunity’s students will have to influence others.
  2. Monthly meetings with Connection College staff to discuss overall direction and condition of the ministry. This team will give feedback to CC staff team along with prayerful insight into future direction of the ministry.
  3. Weekly access to staff offices. We want you to feel a part of our team! Whether you are working on church or school stuff, feel free to “hang out” with us at the church.
  4. First opportunity to sign up for Spring Break College Mission Trip.

“...I urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called”

Ephesians 4:1

Qualifications

Every member of the CCLT must meet and maintain certain qualifications. Only those individuals that meet the following qualifications will be considered. The applicant must:

  • At least 1 year of being in college (not a freshman)
  • Attended College Nights for at least a semester
  • A spiritual maturity that others admire
  • Ability to disciple another college student
  • A positive reputation amongst peers

Expectations

It is our desire to “let you know what you’re getting into,” so to speak. So, we want to be completely up front with what will be expected from each member of the CCLT. Each member of the CCLT will be expected to:

Actively engage with College Nights
Each person on CCLT will be required to be at the church at 7pm on Wednesday nights for our College Nights service. It is the expectation that each team member maintains a strong attendance at College Nights. A good rule of thumb is to miss no more than 2 Wednesday nights a semester. We understand “life happens” but if you anticipate being involved in other activities that would require more absence, please do not apply. 

Attend (not lead) a weekly Connect Group or Triad
CC Staff will help you get into a Connect Group or with someone who will personally disciple you (Triad). This is to help ensure that each CCLT member is being poured into and developed, not just pouring out into others. 

Attend a monthly, CCLT meeting
This is a time for the whole team to gather to discuss vision and strategy of the ministry. These will likely be on Sunday’s with food provided. This is also a chance for those on CCLT to give feedback about the areas they are leading. 

Lead a Dream Team or a Connect Group
Those who lead on Dream Team will be asked to do 3 things...
  • Assimilate new Dream Team Volunteers
  • Schedule and communicate weekly to the specific team of volunteers that you are leading. (i.e. Media Team, Prayer Team, Experience Team, and Activities Team).
  • Lead a culture of community and excitement within the specific team you lead.

Those who lead Connect Groups will be asked to do 3 things...
  • Facilitate weekly group discussion that fosters biblical community and fuels spiritual growth
  • Contact new students who sign up for your group and welcome them in to your community. 
  • Identify a co-leader who can help you carry the responsibility of leadership.
Carry themselves in a way that is consistent with that of a spiritual leader
It is our conviction that those who serve in a leadership role should give careful consideration to how their actions effect people’s view of Jesus and His church and thus the advance of the gospel in people’s lives. We ask that each person commit to living Godly lives in accordance with scripture (1 Thes. 4, Galatians 5, 1 Timothy 4 ) . Rather than give a list of “do’s and don’t’s” we ask that you welcome the shepherding of our CC staff to help guide and hold you accountable to what is a Godly life. If you are unsure as to what would be considered a Godly life, we would be happy to walk you through that!
