Embrace(d)
This one word describes Campus Ministry at CUAA. We recognize that we are embraced by our Father in Heaven, no matter our past, and He offers us forgiveness and fresh starts because of Jesus. This same Father calls us to love and embrace each other. Love for God and love for people are the hallmarks of Campus Ministry. We come alongside students, giving them a healthy environment and space in which to address their real struggles and real doubts, so that they may come to real peace and real faith. For over 50 years, the motto of "Christ First in Everything" has been the foundational building block of our university. Today, we continue to be a Christ-centered university. We are active and intentional in our mission—to help students “develop...for service to Christ in the Church and the World.”
My name is Rev. Randy Duncan and I am the Campus Pastor at Concordia University Ann Arbor. I am also a graduate of CUAA and this campus is where I met my wife. The Christian Life on campus was foundational for me in becoming a missionary and pastor, and I am thrilled to give back to this campus that truly changed my life. My personal life mission is to know Jesus more fully in order to make Him more fully known. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at randall.duncan@dgrzzx.com
Daily Chapel
Daily Chapel Worship services meet in the Chapel of the Holy Trinity each day of the regular school year from 10:30 am to 10:50 am. Each service will be Christ-centered, consistently excellent, and engaging and participatory. A variety of musical instruments are used, whether a worship arts band, piano, or organ. Most weeks emphasize a “Series,” allowing Daily Chapel to have a sense of continuity and connection.
Find Your Calling
Whether you’re new in your faith or have grown up in the Church, Concordia’s programs are specifically designed to help cultivate your God-given gifts so that you can have the greatest impact for His Kingdom.
Serving the community
Service is an integral part of the daily life and mission of Concordia University Ann Arbor. Not only is service a core value, as we strive to service others in caring, helpful, and knowledgeable ways, but our mission is not fulfilled until our students go out into the Church and the world as servants of Christ.
Some of the ways Concordia practices service is through a mission of the month, dedicating support to a project or organization in the area, sending students on mission trips, and through the various service initiatives of student clubs, organizations, teams, or departments.
By creating and cultivating opportunities for the campus community to regularly serve our brothers and sisters in Christ, we demonstrate the love of Christ who came to earth not to be served but to serve.
