Welcome to the Carlson School of Management’s first-ever MBA Christian fellowship group!

Last night we had our first planning meeting with eight CSOM PT MBA students in attendance. We talked about some goals as a group and direction as well, which can be condensed into the following preliminary goals list:

  • Developing a business school fellowship that embodies strong personal friendships and Christian community; hold effective and welcoming group meetings for Bible study, prayer, and worship; and challenge students to be a relevant and an active witness in the world.

  • Hosting lectures/speaker-series that advance thinking on Christian leadership and business/faith integration and provide an effective setting for students, faculty, and professionals to form partnerships that will be reinforcing, stimulating, and vital for continued faithfulness.

  •  Encouraging a continued network of MBA students, faculty, alumni, and mentors across the country (and around the world) that extends well beyond the typical two years of business school and prompts ongoing discussion, mentoring, and discipleship.

  • Planning short-term service opportunities for MBA students which utilize acquired business skills, suggest creative alternatives to professional routines, challenge spiritual complacency, and motivate compassion and ambition for the needs of the world.

We will have up-coming events and activities in the weeks and months ahead, so stay tuned! If you’d like more info, please e-mail mbafellowship@gmail.com
