About

Providing hospitality to students of all backgrounds, the mission of The Oasis Campus Ministry at Ball State University is to open its doors as a home-away-from-home environment; giving students spiritual support and emotional guidance through Christian leadership in an open and non-judgmental way.

The Oasis at Ball State University is affiliated with the American Baptist Churches USA and The American Baptist Churches of Indiana/Kentucky. We have been a missional presence at Ball State University for many years and work to build positive, spiritually forming relationships with students, staff, and faculty as well as with our neighbors in the Muncie community. We intend to work in ministry cooperatively with other campus ministries as we are invited and able to do so. We believe it is important to work ecumenically with other denominations and non-denominational groups as well as with other groups on campus.

American Baptists have a rich history of being committed to Missions, Education, and Social Justice issues in the United States and around the world.
