Campus Ministry

As part of our mission to build Strong Connections, Virginia Lutherans reach out to share God’s presence with students at colleges and universities across the Commonwealth.  The Virginia Synod is part of the Virginia Lutheran Campus Ministry Network with a purpose to connect Lutheran college students with each other and to campus ministries or congregations around Virginia.  Our campus ministry program is also committed to the development of faith formation and leadership opportunities.

Rev. Dr. Bryan Katz serves as the Coordinator for Virginia Synod Campus Ministries and as the Coordinator of the Virginia Lutheran Campus Ministry Network.  To learn more about how you can support campus ministries in Virginia, to refer a student, or for other information, you can contact Pastor Bryan.

Throughout the year, but especially in spring and early summer, we invite students, families, and congregations to share with us what plans our High School seniors and recent graduates have after high school, whether it’s the workforce, military, gap year experience, local college or residential college. This helps us make referrals and to keep in touch with youth who have come through our congregational and synodical youth ministries. Use this link to share or update that information.
