Announcements from BCM Core Meeting (1.27.14)

[Michael Kim-Eubanks]

Good Evening Friends!

It was great to see those of you that came out last night to our Milk and Cookies info session! For those of you who weren't there (as well as those of you who were), here are the announcements that you missed:

1. InterVarsity Covenant IM Sports

Black Campus Ministries is part of a larger family of 6 Christian communities known as InterVarsity. Every semester, all of our communities join together in forming intramural sports teams that allow us to build relationships, have healthy competition, and have lots of fun! If you're interested, you can sign up by going to https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1BaGezrg5wvNVitNPTHj6ZFyVmEsp96J2DhxDfahQil0/viewform, or by contacting Jeshua John (jeshuakjohn AT gmail DOT com).

2. PAID Summer Internships!

Fellowship of Companies for Christ International (FCCI) is the largest marketplace ministry in the world, with 14,000 members and a vision to transform the world through Christ, one company leader at a time.  Recently, FCCI developed a Fellows Ministry to engage emerging leaders in college with an internship experience that would open their eyes to the marketplace as a place of calling and a means of disciple-making for the remainder of their careers.  This ten-week paid internship pairs each student with a Christian CEO or Executive Leader in an FCCI company. Companies participating in the program will be medium to larger size companies.  In addition to at least one weekly discipleship meeting with the CEO, the student would receive practical experience in strategic plan development, participate in a Business Leadership Group during the summer months, and attend an FCCI Regional or International Conference.  FCCI has a goal of reaching one million interns in the next 20 years.

 

The Fellows Ministry Program will launch this summer.  The original deadline for student applications is today, Wednesday, January 15th.  However, the deadline is being extended for InterVarsity students through Saturday, February 1, 2014. Here is the link for the FCCI Fellows Ministry Program: http://www.fcci.org/fellows-ministry. Students must submit an internship application, resume, and $25 deposit no later than February 1st. This program is for freshmen, sophomores, and juniors only (not graduating seniors). FCCI will then provide a student information page for member companies to view and select candidates for phone interviews. For additional information, you can search the FCCI website at www.fcci.org or contact Frank Vann at (770) 685-6000.

That's all. Have a great week!
