Our Mission

Our mission, in other words, is what we are doing or why we exist.  Our mission statement says it best: we exist to glorify God by building laborers on the campus for the lost world.

Glorifying God

First, we believe that God is deserving of eternal glory and therefore, we exist first and foremost for God to be glorified by what we do and how we do it.  Our biggest desire is for God’s greatness to be reflected in our lives and for many to experience that greatness through our ministry.

Building Laborers

Second, we believe that the most natural response to experiencing greatness is the desire to tell others about it.  Thus, our mission is to tell others about God’s glory through the gospel of Christ, and to train them to be able to tell others also.

On the Campus

Next, we believe that the college campus is one of the greatest environments for building laborers since students possess the availability to receive training during a time in their life where they are developing their life values and practices.  We are convinced that God has called us here with this mission for the betterment of individual students, the campus, and the world.

For the Lost World

Lastly, our end goal is to produce more laborers from the campus to go into the world with a heart for the lost and the training to love and impact others for Christ.  Our desire is that graduates would provide leadership in every sphere of influence (the church, medicine, community, business, education, missions, etc.) by glorifying God and building laborers at home and around the world.

What is Campus Outreach?

Campus Outreach Greenville is an inter-denominational ministry targeting college campuses in upper South Carolina and western North Carolina. Founded in 1994 under the supervision of Mitchell Road Presbyterian Church in Greenville, SC, our mission is “Glorifying God by Building Laborers on the Campus for the Lost World.” Through evangelism and discipleship, we reach students with the gospel and train them to be mature Christians with a commitment to the Great Commission. Our desire is to see students leave college equipped for the work of ministry and ready to labor in the harvest fields for the glory of God!
