Staff Opening at Penn State Berks

Impact Campus Ministries is currently seeking to hire a Lead Campus Minister for our ministry at Penn State Berks in Reading, Pennsylvania.

Our campus ministries are built on the premise that true success is developing “intimacy with God” (a personal, real, dynamic relationship with God through faith in Jesus). We do this by pursuing it ourselves, modeling it, and purposefully teaching it to university students across America.

A willingness to raise funds is required.
