SUNY Brockport
Interfaith Campus Ministries


Mission Statement

SUNY Brockport seeks to educate the whole person by advancing the values of integrity, justice, civility and respect in a safe environment.  SUNY Brockport Interfaith Campus Ministries seeks to acknowledge the important role that religion and spiritual values play in people's lives as they grow and integrate what they learn.

In keeping with Council for Advancement of Standards in Higher Education (CAS) Standards and Guidelines, SUNY Brockport, as a public institution, offers and provides access to programs that enable interested students to pursue full spiritual growth and development; and, it fosters a campus atmosphere in which interested members of the College community may freely express their religion and faith.

Interfaith Campus Ministry, at its heart, is a pastoral and prophetic presence which seeks to enhance the spiritual and ethical experience and growth of the whole person - mind, body and spirit.  There are many faith communities willing and committed to offer this presence in the SUNY Brockport community.

Therefore, SUNY Brockport and leaders of participating faith communities established the Interfaith Campus Ministries of SUNY Brockport as common ground through which they will cooperate and collaborate to

  1. Enhance the religious and spiritual life at the College.
  2. Provide opportunities and welcoming space for worship, community and hospitality for all members of the College community.
  3. Raise ethical and moral issues within the College.
  4. Serve as a reconciling agency within the College.
  5. Serve as an advocate and support for individuals within the community.
  6. Provide a structure for facilitating communication, understanding and respect among various College departments and the religious groups represented on campus.
  7. Work toward providing a center for ministries.
  8. Connect the College with, and encourage outreach to, the larger community.
  9. Meet regularly with representatives of all undersigned religious groups and an official SUNY Brockport designee to cooperate with each other and pursue the above.
