College of Charleston

 

The College of Charleston is our city’s beautiful downtown campus that encourages students to think expansively and creatively about their place in the world. We love the opportunity to encourage students in that pursuit to center their perspectives on Christ and to learn what it means to take faith on as one’s own.

Our CofC group meets every Wednesday evening at 6:15pm in the Student Space. We are very thankful to Trinity UMC for this space, as it allows us to enjoy meal before worshipping and studying together in a cozy space.

The Wesley Foundation gives me the opportunity to be a part of Bible Studies guided by educated theologians who always encourage us to ask questions and deepen our relationship with God. I have the opportunity to make friends through Wesley; friends who show character, leadership, selflessness, and Godly attitudes. Finally, having been a part of a service team, Wesley has given me the opportunity to give back to the community in proactive ways. I use this word, “opportunity” intentionally, as we at College of Charleston are blessed to have such a ministry at our disposal.
