The Coordinator of Student Ministry (CSM) will report to the Director of Student Ministry (DSM) and join a dynamic team in their efforts to evangelize and provide faith formation for students. This will involve multifaceted responsibilities to support the growing programs in Campus Ministry.

The CSM will have significant interaction with the Student Ministry team and have responsibility for specific programs in each of the assistant directors’ areas, including the Assistant Director of Faith and Justice (ADFJ), Assistant Director of Spirituality (ADS), and Assistant Director of Multicultural Ministry (ADMM). Responsibilities will include coordinating the Mercy Works program and special projects as assigned by the DSM in various areas within Student Ministry.

Coordinating the Mercy Works program includes, but is not limited to, setting up numerous direct service opportunities and organizing formation and development for students to integrate their experience of faith and understanding of social justice with their lived experience serving the marginalized.

Special projects, responsibilities and duties will be assigned based on the needs of the Student Ministry team, and may include preparing prayer services, coordinating faith formation programs, or planning and executing retreats or other ministries and events. Decisions about priorities will be facilitated by the DSM to ensure that work is spread out over the course of the year in a manageable way.

Appreciation of the Catholic tradition, knowledge of Catholic social teaching, sensitivity to different cultural realities, and experience leading formation with students are essential. Experience working with the marginalized and planning liturgical prayer are ideal. Along with their programming responsibilities, the candidate must have well-developed skills in one-on-one mentoring, the capacity to work nights and weekends, be available for planned and unplanned conversations, and understand University policies and resources.
