Coach
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 check-in monthly and update their progress.
The CM that you coach will go online and share their progress by checking in online. They are responsible for designating you as their coach and keeping you informed of their progress. Every time the CM checks in, 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, go to the Leader Resources section on our Resources page.
