Rochester Christian University has established a Spiritual Formation Advisory Group where Christian leaders from the community will join the university in helping students discover their life’s purpose and learn how to connect that purpose to their careers.
“We believe a strong Christian faith is a foundation for success, both in learning and in life,” said Dr. Brian Stogner, president of Rochester Christian University. “Hand-in-hand with these convictions and goals about the processes of learning and vocation is spiritual formation.”
The Spiritual Formation Advisory Group will counsel, advocate and engage the community in support of RCU’s mission. Similarly, Rochester Christian University will support the mission of the local faith communities represented by the group’s members.
