Erskine College and the Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church provide a Chaplain, or Campus Minister, for the purpose of pastoring students. The campus minister's work is not independent, but is accountable to the ARP Denomination and denominational book of Standards.

Campus Ministry at Erskine, through the Chaplain and ARP denominational affiliation is thankful to have a fraternal relationship with Reformed University Ministries with whom we attend regional and national conferences every fall, spring and summer. These conferences are a highlight for personal growth in the lives of students. Scholarships to reduce the expense are available, thanks to gifts from individuals and churches.

Ecclesiology

The campus ministry in no way seeks to replace the role of the local church in the life of the college student, but seeks only to supplement it during the crucial and formative years of late adolesence and early adulthood.  Students are constantly encouraged to get connected and to stay connected in a local body that faithfully preaches the Word and administers the Sacraments.
