Coach a Campus Missionary
Coaches are vital to the success of CMs. The campus missionary coach is a personal encourager, mentor, and trainer for campus missionaries. The coach may serve more than one student at a time.
The goal of the coach is to:
- Make a one year commitment to the student.
- Encourage the student in the five habits of a campus missionary.
- Guide the student in the process of becoming a follower of Jesus.
Practical ways you can coach:
- PRAY daily for each campus missionary.
- ENCOURAGE each student missionary in words and actions.
- MENTOR each student by regularly communicating encouraging messages to help the missionary fulfill her/his commitments.
- PROVIDE the accountability each student needs to grow as a campus missionary. Help them report monthly on their progress.
The CM that you coach will go online and fill out a monthly CM report. They are responsible for designating you as their coach and keepying you informed of their progress. Every time the CM submits a report, you will receive a copy.
The coach provides the personal sideline support to make a missionary more successful. For more information on becoming a campus missionary coach, and for tools to help your Campus Missionary, order the Campus Missionary Digisource.
